Decision-making processes in the European Union are multiple and complex. Before arriving at concrete actions, plans need to be discussed between the different parties. European policies for culture are guided by several documents: one of the most important is the Work Plan for Culture. This cyclical multi-annual document by the Council of European Union aims to define the European Union's political priorities for the entire cultural sector.
Each Work Plan reflects the political condition of the Union and the main concerns of its member states. In this way, the Work Plan is established as a strategic and dynamic instrument of EU cultural cooperation.

EU ACTION PLAN AGAINST TRAFFICKING CULTURAL GOODS
December 2022
Trafficking in cultural goods is a lucrative business for organized crime, conflict parties, and terrorists, with a low risk of detection and a high potential for profit. This illegal activity can have a devastating impact on cultural heritage, especially in crisis and conflict zones.
On December 2022, EU commission adopted an action plan to address this transnational criminal phenomenon with four strategic objectives: improving prevention and detection, strengthening law enforcement and judicial capabilities, boosting international cooperation, and gaining support from key stakeholders to protect cultural goods from crime.
