  • Monitor emerging trends and developments in the field of asset recovery.
  • Provide ad hoc research support and guidance to ICAR staff at headquarters and in the field on global asset recovery policies and best practices, particularly with regards to the design and assessment of asset recovery legislation.
  • Represent ICAR and the Basel Institute at events focused on advancing global policy dialogue (international conferences, workshops, roundtables etc.).
  • Contribute to internal knowledge sharing amongst ICAR staff.
  • Create and maintain an internal ICAR repository centre of knowledge products, guidelines and practical templates.
  • Prepare speaking points and briefs for management.
