European Commission

The code is one of the pillars in the European Commission’s Global Approach to Research and Innovation:

“Research ethics and integrity: The rapid development of new technologies necessitates a continuous evaluation of current approaches to address ethical challenges and ensure human-centred technological innovation. The EU should continue to promote internationally the European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity and the Global Code of Conduct for Research in Resource-Poor Settings.” (18 May 2021)
