So, as there seem to be more and more starter packs circulating on Bluesky, I thought I would have a go at creating one for cultural heritage lawyers. There don't seem to be many of us on Bluesky yet, but please let me know if you would like to be added! go.bsky.app/HgwFdcg

Come join us, folks - it's quite a line-up of people at the forefront of international legal practice in this area #reparations #culturalheritage #internationallaw
