Unesco, the United Nations\u2019 culture body, has announced plans for what it says will be the first virtual museum of stolen cultural artefacts, aimed at raising public awareness of trafficking and the unique importance of cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

\u201cBehind every stolen work or fragment lies a piece of history, identity and humanity that has been wrenched from its custodians, rendered inaccessible to research, and now risks falling into oblivion,\u201d said the Unesco director general, Audrey Azoulay.<\/p>\n
