measure: RI training The National Forum has prepared several position papers and guideline documents to assist research institutions: - [https://www.iua.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Research-Integrity-Officer-Role-Reporting-Structure-FINAL-April-2016-1.pdf Research Integrity Officer Role and Reporting Structure] - [https://www.iua.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Research-Ethics-Integrity-FINAL-April-2016-1.pdf Interface between Research Integrity and Research Ethics] - [https://www.iua.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Guidelines-for-RI-investigations-FINAL-17-08-16-1.pdf Guidelines for the Investigation of Misconduct in Research] Since January 2018, online research integrity training (commercial product) is available to researchers at every publicly funded higher education institution and government research institution in Ireland. The National Forum on Research Integrity has put this training in place '"`UNIQ--ref-000001B5-QINU`"', initially for a three-year pilot which provided access to research integrity training for up to 15,000 researchers. The Forum has recently made arrangements to continue access to the training for a further three years (2021-2023), but now without limits on the number of researchers who can complete the training. The training has been fully updated to take into account the Irish context, and individual institutions can add details of their own policies and procedures if required. RI dialogue and communication Research integrity is discussed in the lay press. The print media has given coverage to research integrity in the past number of years, both the positive and the negative '"`UNIQ--ref-000001B6-QINU`"''"`UNIQ--ref-000001B7-QINU`"''"`UNIQ--ref-000001B8-QINU`"'. In 2020, Science Foundation Ireland made a report “Science in Ireland Barometer”, an analysis of the Irish public’s perceptions and awareness of STEM in society. According to the report, majority of the Irish public showed high level of trust in “science” (89%) and “scientists” (81%). The pu…

research funding: In 2019, the gross expenditures on research and development were €4.027 million, which comprises 1.13 % of the country’s GDP. Most funding was spent in the business sector (75%), higher education (20.73%) and government sector (4.29%) '"`UNIQ--ref-000001A5-QINU`"'. Ireland had 2008 grants receiving €1.12 billion funding from H2020 (6). It also had 111 ERC signed grants receiving €154.7 million from H2020 '"`UNIQ--ref-000001A6-QINU`"'. '"`UNIQ--references-000001A7-QINU`"'
research governance: Ireland has two national bodies for research ethics and research integrity – the National Forum on Research Integrity '"`UNIQ--ref-000001AB-QINU`"' and the National Office for Research Ethics Committees '"`UNIQ--ref-000001AC-QINU`"'. The National Forum on Research Integrity, established in June 2015, is coordinated by the Irish Universities Association (IUA) and the Technological Higher Education Association (THEA). One of its goals is to support the implementation of research integrity policies. To that end, it has released a National [https://www.iua.ie/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/IUA_Research_Integrity_in_Ireland_Report_2019.pdf Policy Statement on Ensuring Research Integrity in Ireland], revised in 2019 to align with the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity '"`UNIQ--ref-000001AD-QINU`"'. It has also developed guidelines for HEIs on improving their research integrity processes and will publish a Framework for ensuring Research Integrity in Collaborative Agreements in 2021. The National Research Integrity Forum has a broad membership, including representation from all publicly funded higher education institutions, government research institutions, research funders and the state agencies responsible for quality and regulation of the higher education system '"`UNIQ--ref-000001AE-QINU`"'. While the Health Research Board (HRB), one of the members of the National Forum, was the first to develop policies and guidelines for the promotion of research integrity, all funding agency members now have these in place. In addition, the Higher Education Authority, who provide core funding and governance oversight for the higher education sector in Ireland issued its own principles of good research practice for the HE Sector in 2020 '"`UNIQ--ref-000001AF-QINU`"'. There are numerous research ethics committees in higher education institutions and hospitals/healthcare settings of which 12, based in hospitals, were recognised by the Department of Health for the purpose of pr…
research strategy: The Irish Government launched the five-year strategy on research and development, science and technology, entitled Innovation 2020. The Strategy’s vision is for Ireland to become a Global Innovation Leader with a sustainable, high employment economy and “a better society enjoying a good quality of life” '"`UNIQ--ref-000001A9-QINU`"'. The focus is on innovation as a focal point in driving productivity growth and encouraging competitiveness. '"`UNIQ--references-000001AA-QINU`"'
