The Civil Law Foundation is a French institution of international legal cooperation, recognized as public utility, whose main objective is to promote the assets of civil law and create forums of exchange on legal systems, both in France and abroad.

Every year, our Foundation organizes the Summer School of Civil Law in partnership with the prestigious Université Paris II Panthéon-Assas. 

The 2024 edition will exceptionally be held entirely online due to the Paris Olympic Games. It will take place from July 1 to July 31, 2024. 

The ambition of this Summer School is to provide all participants with a comprehensive understanding of continental law and its evolution and influence on the legal and economic models currently evolving worldwide. In addition to the courses, it is also an opportunity to meet key players in the French legal system.

The program is taught in both English and French and is open to anyone who has completed a minimum of three years of legal studies (students and legal practitioners). Each year, this event brings together many students and legal professionals from all over the world who will be awarded, at the end of a final exam, a Training Certificate in Civil Law.
