Summary/Abstract: Recent intentional destructions of world cultural heritage and the increased illicit trafficking of smuggled artefacts has resulted in a significant rethink of educational systems and models. Understanding the fundamental value of cultural heritage as a messenger of humankind’s identity will improve measures of preservation. Due to the need for global action at various levels via a multilateral approach, Unidroit is providing institutional and legal assistance, complementing the actions relating to exchange and cooperation and the operational measures provided by its partners.
