The programme&#8217;s primary and most prominent focus, is Nazi-looted art and cultural property displaced during the Nazi era (1933-1945). This is the core of the curriculum. It also includes a dedicated module on goods from colonial contexts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Mesures de restitution\u00a0: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aucun. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The programme itself is a training and capacity-building measure, not a direct restitution mechanism. It aims to create qualified professionals who can conduct the research that informs restitution processes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Limitations du cadre :<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Swiss provenance research appears primarily focused on Nazi-looted art rather than colonial collections, and Switzerland&#8217;s indirect colonial involvement creates complexities in establishing clear restitution frameworks compared to countries with direct colonial histories. As a training course, it has no executive or advisory authority. Its scope reflects the current professional field, which is indeed more developed for Nazi-era spoliation than for colonial contexts in Switzerland.<\/p>","protected":false},"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"iawp_total_views":0},"country":[244],"framework-type":[215],"class_list":["post-6454","policy-record","type-policy-record","status-publish","hentry","country-switzerland","framework-type-other"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/policy-record\/6454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/policy-record"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/policy-record"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"country","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/country?post=6454"},{"taxonomy":"framework-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/openrestitution.africa\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/framework-type?post=6454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
