The hybrid Core Group Meeting of the Action successfully took place in Warsaw, kindly hosted by the Institute of Law Studies, Polish Academy of Sciences.
The meeting represented an important milestone for the Action, providing the opportunity for a first collective assessment six months after its official start. During the discussions, the Core Group re-evaluated ongoing and upcoming activities, implementation priorities, and the Action budget, which will now proceed for approval by the Management Committee.
Particular attention was dedicated to strengthening collaboration opportunities and widening participation across the network. In this regard, new STSM calls will be announced soon, with a special encouragement for Young Researchers and Innovators to actively engage in international cooperation and knowledge exchange activities.
The meeting also highlighted the upcoming series of webinars and events that will further expand the interdisciplinary dialogue within the cultural property protection community. First in line will be the webinar by Michelle Fabiani on the 26 of May 2026.
A sincere thank you to all Core Group members for their active participation, commitment, and constructive contributions, and to our host Andrzej Jakubowski for the warm welcome and excellent organisation.
