The UNESCO Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property was adopted in Paris on 14 November 1970. It came into force on 24 April 1972. It took over 30 years for the first Meeting of States Parties to the Convention to take place on 15 October 2003. The second meeting, the subject of this report, took place after a shorter period of about nine years, on 20-21 June 2012. A Meeting of States Parties to a treaty is primarily a forum to discuss and agree on measures that can be taken to improve its effectiveness and the realization of the aims and objectives of the instrument. Accordingly, the meeting was tasked with examining in depth the impact of the measures taken by States Parties to the Convention in order to optimize its implementation, and also to consider and approve whatever efficacious measures should be taken for its best functioning
