Liability for Autonomous Drones Workshop
Please find below information for the workshop on ‘Liability for Autonomous Drones’. The workshop will lead to end edited collection. The collection will address developments in national laws regulating autonomous drones and highlight any shortcomings and potential for future European or international regulation. As such, it will analyse variations between domestic laws regarding drone use and liability across different jurisdictions to provide the first comparative assessment, which will in turn aid the development of further regulation, such as a common European or indeed international framework.
The aim of the workshop is to bring the authors together to discuss and receive feedback on draft chapters. It will allow a chance to hear the contribution of fellow authors and develop the overall collection, which is set to be a leading text on an underdeveloped, yet highly sought, area of legal regulation.
Dates: 9 September 2022.
Location: Hotel Indigo, Dundee, United Kingdom.
