PREPARED Code

Research is vital to solve humanity’s challenges. Yet, much needed research is hampered by ethics and integrity challenges.

The four ethics codes on this site help ensure that research is undertaken equitably, even in times of major crisis and across power imbalances. We hope the codes inspire you to undertake research with fairness, respect, care and honesty.
