Research development workshop: research ethics

This presentation mainly used the ethics policy of this institution, so I didn’t take many notes considering that I have the policy.

The intention of ethics in research is to safeguard human dignity and to promote justice, equality, truth and trust → crtical reflection on morality

Ethics are norms for conduct that distinguish between acceptable and unacceptable behaviour

Why is research ethics necessary?

• Promotes the aims of research
• Promotes the values that are essential to collaborative work e.g. trust, accountability, mutual respect, fairness
• Helps to ensure that researchers can be held accountable to the public
• Helps to build public support for research
• Important to develop morale
