|Title=ETHICAL CODE OF THE COMMITTEE FOR ETHICS IN SCIENCE AND HIGHER EDUCATION (2015), Committee for Ethics in Science and Higher Education
|Is About=The ''Ethical Code of the Committee for Ethics in Science and Higher Education'' (2015), authored by the Committee for Ethics in Science and Higher Education, is a national framework promoting research integrity in Croatia. Written in Croatian and targeting researchers, institutions, and funders, it formalises principles of honesty, accountability, professional courtesy, and stewardship of resources, linking them to reproducibility, credibility, and public trust. It outlines responsibilities across the research cycle, including authorship, citation, conflict-of-interest management, transparency of methods and data, responsible supervision, and fair peer review. Procedures for addressing misconduct are defined, ensuring due process, proportional sanctions, and learning opportunities. By aligning with international standards, it connects Croatian practice to global norms, supporting mobility and comparability of researchers. Training on responsible conduct is emphasised, while guidance covers open science, digital tools, and data management. Equity and diversity are integrated as cross-cutting themes. Combining principles with practical tools, glossaries, and reporting systems, it functions as both a policy and a practical handbook.
|Important Because=ETHICAL CODE OF THE COMMITTEE FOR ETHICS IN SCIENCE AND HIGHER EDUCATION distils national expectations for research integrity in Croatia and clarifies what researchers and institutions in Croatia need to do to comply. It reduces ambiguity, aligns local practice with international norms, and offers actionable steps that improve transparency, reproducibility, and equitable access. For policy leads, it is a benchmark; for authors and administrators, it is a practical checklist. Published by Committee for Ethics in Science and Higher Education in 2015, it is a credible reference to cite in institutional policies, training, and grant documentation.
