On 3 December 2019, the JURI Committee hosted a public hearing on “Cross-border restitution claims of works of art and cultural goods looted in armed conflicts and wars”. 

Leading experts, including TIAMSA Co-Chair Johannes Nathan, from a variety of national contexts from within and beyond Europe discussed various aspects of restitution of cultural property with the aim to look at ways to ensure fair and just solutions for the return of looted art. They provided opinions on the future actions required to ensure standard processes for making and pursuing claims, due diligence standards, and shared definitions of what constitutes loss both between and even within countries.
