Sadly, the uncertainties created by the COVID-19 pandemic have made it necessary to postpone Obligations X: ‘Private Law and the State’ until 2023. We plan to hold the conference at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in Alberta on July 11–14 2023.

The Obligations Conference is now 20 years old! 🥳 The 20th anniversary of the first Obligations Conference Melbourne Law School in 2002 passed unnoticed in February. Not much to celebrate until we can start meeting again, but hopefully the regular schedule can resume next year.🤞🏼

Spectacular venue for #ObsxBanff, starting tomorrow.

Looking forward to Obligations X tomorrow. Hopefully it will stop raining at some point ☔️
