Title: The Duty to Rescue Speakers: Andrew Warnock KC (Deka Chambers), further speakers tba. The speakers will discuss ‘Duty to Rescue’, the legal concept that holds people (and possibly states) responsible for helping others in dangerous situations such as people drowning at sea, loss of life as a result of state action/ natural disaster/climate change. The extent of any legal duty, the significance of the behaviour of the victim and the remedies for any breach vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and approaches differ widely. Some states punish failure to attempt rescue by the criminal law, some by the civil law. Others do not accept that there is any legal duty at all. The event will be delivered in person and online. The session will include an opportunity for Q&A and for post-talk networking. Non-members: Scroll beneath the Members Login box and click 'Add Ticket'. Cancel by: 09/03/2026
