Dr Papathanassiou will discuss how Greece is among the leading countries in the fight against the illegal trafficking in cultural property, with a specific emphasis on key aspects of Greek “cultural diplomacy.”
A spotlight will be placed on emblematic case studies such as how Greece is managing the return of the Parthenon Marbles, as well as the recent conversion of the Hagia Sophia World Heritage Monument into a mosque.
Following her presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask Dr Papathanassiou a question in the Q&A session.
