In March 2004, before joining the Institute, he worked for Iraqi participants in the negotiations for the Transitional Administrative Law for Iraq. Prior to that, he advised the Asia Foundation and the government of Afghanistan on law reform and constitutional implementation. From 1999 to 2002, Morrow was a legal adviser in the Office of the Special Representative to the Secretary General in the UN Transitional Administration in East Timor, developing a legislative regime, electoral laws for the successful 2001 Constituent Assembly election, and a constituent process.
