The project The illicit trade of cultural objects is increasing, especially in countries in crisis or at war. The primary aim of the project is to create a forum of exchange of experience between professionals involved in the fight against the illicit trade of cultural objects. Norway and Poland face different challenges with the practical implementation of international conventions, as well as national laws and regulations. For these reasons the exchange of practices and experience is useful for both parties. Another important goal of the project is the sharing of ideas on how to increase awareness on both illicit trade and information regarding import and export of cultural objects. This applies to both the general public as well as professionals working in the field of cultural heritage protection for example the Police and Customs authorities. Fighting illicit trade of cultural objects is central to the project. Sharing knowledge and experience on how to face this challenge can help generate new ideas - as well as the practical know-how and incentive to implement concrete action. Through this project, we wish to create an arena for cultural heritage administrators and institutions, Police and Customs officials, where participants can share their experience in the field of fighting illicit trade of cultural objects, crime against cultural heritage and discuss import and export regulations as well as the ethical questions these raise. And, to think of possible improvements. We hope through this project to raise awareness amongst the general public as well as employees in relevant sectors such
as the travel industry/tourism and antique trade. In addition, it is important to raise awareness amongst professionals directly involved; employees and administrators in relevant cultural institutions as well as the Police, Border guards Customs officials, or museums. Increased awareness on ethics, amongst those who have work related to the trade of cultural objects, as well as the general population, is a central aim of the project. The long term goal is that this will help reduce the number of offences committed. Within the project period, three workshops, the seminar and the exhibition at Travel Fair were organized. The final stage of the project will be the preparation of a publication (in Polish, Norwegian and English) which will contain the results and experiences from the workshops and articles written by partners and outside experts. Website www.stop-heritage-crime.org documents the progress of the project, and provides information about law and regulations. The intention is that the website will become an active platform of debate and exchange of information, and thus encourage continued cooperation among professionals and institutions working in the field of cultural heritage protection.
