The Centre on Culture in Armed Conflict (CCC) at Peace Research Institute Oslo - PRIO hosted a roundtable on ethical, legal and political perspectives on the agendas related to cultural property in connection with armed conflicts. The workshop served as a preparation for the upcoming meeting of the NATO Science for Peace and Security Project on Cultural Property in NATO-led Operations and Missions (NATO SPS CPP) in Brussels ultimo March 2020.
The roundtable, which enjoyed participation from researchers as well as practitioners, was organized by the research groups ‘Law and Ethics’ and ‘Security’ at PRIO in collaboration with CHAC, the PRIO Centre on Culture in Armed Conflict (CCC), and the Norwegian Centre for Humanitarian Studies (NCHS). It drew on support from the HUMEVAL scheme of the Research Council of Norway.
