Ethics Framework and Guidelines for Participatory Processes in the Activities of Research Funding Organizations

What is this about?

This framework supports the ethical preparation, implementation, and evaluation of participatory processes in research funding and (applied) research & innovation (R&I). It helps the user understand the context in which they undertake a participatory process and guides them through mapping and addressing the ethical challenges and limitations that might arise.

The framework addresses different contexts, resources, and needs that impact decisions on how to conduct participatory processes in an ethical manner for Research Funding Organisations (RFOs), and provides guidance to ensure stakeholder participation is executed without disregarding values such as fairness, transparency, equality, and privacy.

Why is this important?

RFOs play a fundamental role in the opening up of research to broader audiences, and are crucial in determining research agendas at a local, national and international level. As such, it is a good thing that RFOs want to involve more (and broader) groups in participation - but involving these groups in an ethical way raises new issues and questions. These guidelines exist as a tool for safeguarding the ethics, effectiveness and justification of stakeholder participation.

For whom is this important?
