The Islamic World Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (ICESCO) on Monday issued a new study entitled "Legislative Mechanisms for Combating Illicit Trafficking in Cultural Property in Arab Countries".

The study aims to provide a legal framework for protecting cultural properties in the organization's member states.
It offers practical solutions to strengthen the legal and institutional capacity of Arab countries in light of the growing challenges. It aims to foster coordination and the exchange of expertise in the best legislative practices, and to address gaps in national laws.
ICESCO stressed its commitment to protecting cultural heritage and strengthening laws used to combat the growing threat of illegal trafficking of cultural assets.
