Short CV:

Dr Iryna Bogdanova is an international law scholar. Before joining KFG The International Rule of Law – Rise or Decline, she held a position as a postdoctoral researcher and was based at the World Trade Institute, University of Bern.
Over the past years, Dr Bogdanova has published contributions analysing various aspects of economic statecraft, mostly focusing on economic sanctions, their effectiveness and legality under international law. Her recent book explores the legality of unilateral economic sanctions, i.e. those imposed by individual states without authorization of the United Nations Security Council, under international law. One of her latest academic projects is to analyse the possibility of using frozen Russian assets (belonging to the Central Bank and private individuals) for funding Ukraine’s reconstruction efforts and the legality of such a move.
Iryna earned her PhD degree (Summa cum Laude) from the Faculty of Law of the University of Berne. Prior to this, she pursued legal studies in Ukraine, Switzerland, and the Netherlands. Dr Bogdanova's previous working experiences are diverse and range from private sector employment to work in international organizations.
