A significant milestone in European policy-making was reached on the 18th of November with the publication of the new directive on product liability, a result of extensive collaboration among leading legal experts and policymakers. Among the contributors was Marta Santos Silva, Postdoctoral Researcher at JusGov. She participated in the Expert Group on New Technologies – Product Liability Formation, working alongside eminent European scholars in product liability. Their collective expertise shaped discussions over the past two years, resulting in a directive that reflects the evolving challenges of new technologies and sustainability.
“This is one of the proudest moments of my career,” Marta Santos Silva shared, highlighting the enriching dialogue with stakeholders and policymakers. A personal highlight for Marta Santos Silva was seeing provisions related to the circular economy included in the directive. “This directive reaffirms the need for bold changes to support sustainability.
It’s rewarding to know that the academic contributions I championed have shaped policies that will make a real difference,” she noted.
The new directive represents a significant step forward in ensuring corporate accountability and environmental responsibility, aligning legal frameworks with the European Green Deal and fostering a sustainable future.
