Biography

Bohdan Bernatskyi contributes to the project of the EU Commission and EU Member States on sanctions harmonisation and coherence at the Florence School of Transnational Governance of the European University Institute. In 2022, he joined the EUI as a Max Weber Fellow, completing his work on the prohibition of political parties during his first year. In his second and third year, he focused on the innovative aspect of examining sanctions from a data perspective. His ongoing research further explores the nature and trajectory of the transformation of international sanctions and the rise of informal global governance. He is the founder of 'Sanctions Finder', a platform that monitors all personal and trade sanctions, providing researchers and practitioners with a unique set of data for compliance and investigation.
