Who is to blame when there is an accident on the playground? Case analysis based on 20 years of experience as a court expert and international playground inspector. The presentation is the answer to the question: How to protect children against injury and yourself against civil and criminal liability? We will go through the various stages of a playground's life: design (including the selection of devices and equipment), tender, assembly, acceptance and ongoing maintenance.

Since 2018, on the initiative of the art & jardins - Hauts-de-France association, the Peace Garden Trail has been created in northern France and Belgium. The landscape project is carried out in symbolic places of remembrance of World War I. Its aim is not only to remind about the soldiers of various nations taking part in the Great War, but also to express opposition to military activities in the modern world. Designers from countries involved in the fighting are invited to design subsequent gardens, and the projects are selected for implementation in a competition.
