This Fortnight was organized around 2 highlights:

2 – The handover to the Brazilian authorities of fossils seized in 2013 and currently stored in a warehouse in Le Havre.

This “Cultural Goods Fortnight” had several objectives: Raising awareness and better communication on customs skills and results as well as highlighting customs actors and partners.
