Background

The Conseil National des Barreaux (CNB) represents all lawyers in France (70,073 practising lawyers).

Outcome

More than 2,000 attendees took part in 38 workshops as part of a fully digital training programme during the 3-day États Généraux de la Famille & du Patrimoine. The CNB was able to pursue its core mission of training lawyers on the French government’s many recent reforms despite the COVID pandemic.
