Two online meetings were held between ARMA representatives and key international partners — International Anti-Corruption Academy (IACA) and the United Nations Interregional Crime and Justice Research Institute (UNICRI). On behalf of ARMA, both meetings were chaired by Vladyslav Zhornytskyi, Head of the Department of International Cooperation and European Integration.

During the meeting with IACA representatives, the prospects for cooperation in the field of professional training and advanced training of ARMA employees were discussed. Particular attention was paid to the development of individual training programs that would meet the current tasks and institutional priorities of the Agency.

The dialogue with UNICRI focused on practical issues related to the implementation of the Asset Recovery Strategy for 2023–2025, in particular with regard to Ukraine's international obligations under the UN Convention against Corruption and the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime.

ARMA expressed interest in deepening cooperation with UNICRI in order to obtain analytical, expert, and methodological support for improving legislation, asset recovery practices, and the development of effective models for the management and social use of seized property. The participants of the meeting noted the high compatibility of the priorities of both institutions and agreed to prepare a specific plan for further action.
