The European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity

What is this about?

The European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity is a framework used by the European research community as a tool to regulate all scientific and research areas and to ensure the integrity of research across Europe. The Code provides a set of fundamental principles for research integrity, a set of good research practices, and highlights the potential violations of research integrity.

Why is this important?

The code provides a framework concerning emerging challenges and technological developments. The European Commission and all EU-funded research projects take the code as a core reference, that serves as a model for research organisations across Europe. Besides, it has been endorsed by the European Association of Social Psychology, in their Diversity and Scientific Integrity Statement.
