WORK HISTORY
Research Specialist @Idlo - International Development Law Organization
Rome, IT
At IDLO I am working on the rule of law, access to justice and sustainable development issues. My main focus is on developing high-quality corporate knowledge products in these areas, while actively contributing to the management of the research pipeline and quality control process. I am particularly involved in the cross-institutional thematic cluster on digital innovation, and I am the data protection focal point for research and learning. I further contribute to maintaining effective relationships with key stakeholders and support program teams to ensure deliverables meet quality standards. As the rule of law has been in persistent decline globally several years in a row, I strive to do my utmost to reverse this trend, and eventually reshape the world into one where every person lives in dignity and equality under the rule of law. Overall, as the motto of IDLO says, it is about creating a culture of justice.

ABOUT MAKSIM KARLIUK
I have 10+ years of working experience at the intersection of law, policy, and philosophy, currently working at the International Development Law Organization (IDLO) focusing on the rule of law to advance peace and sustainable development. Previously I worked at the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) focusing on the Recommendation on the Ethics of Artificial Intelligence (AI), which is the first global normative instrument in this field. I also founded the UNESCO Café-philo on Ethics and represented UNESCO as a member of the European Commission Expert Group on AI and Data in Education and Training. I also held a number of academic and research positions, most recently teaching at Sciences Po in Paris. I have been doing research on law and development and have a large track record researching regional integration, based on which I have published a book with Cambridge University Press in 2023. I was an innovation fellow at the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to facilitate innovations and use innovation methods, tools, and embed new approaches in projects with the focus on problem-solving, ideation, and experimenting solutions to real-life challenges. I am also a member of the UN Innovation Network. Interested in sustainability and innovations, I closely follow the developments in electric cars, solar power, new food technologies and related industries. I also feel strongly about ensuring diversity, inclusiveness, and gender equality. I also do volunteering, in particular I am a member of the Selection Board of Atlas Corps - a Washington, D.C-based non-profit that brings together social sector leaders and organizations and promotes innovation, cooperation, and solutions to address the world’s 21st-century challenges. I currently reside in Rome, working globally. Undeterred by things like citizenship, I also lived in other places, including Paris, Washington, D.C, Moscow and the beautiful city of Bruges in Belgium. My native language is Belarusian, I also speak fluently Russian and English, less fluently French and Ukrainian, and have some basic knowledge of Italian, Greek, Ancient Greek and Korean.
