More information about ERION

ERION is the Ethics and Research Integrity Officer Network within EARMA. It is an open community to discuss the practical and implementation side of Research Ethics and Integrity. The community is for all those that need to ensure compliance, efficiency, functionality, fairness, and robustness in the practices and processes in their organisation. Such people may have titles such as Ethics/Integrity Officer, Administrator, and many others. You should have the role of a practitioner within your organisation. This event is NOT about Research in Ethics or Research Integrity.

ERION acts as a stakeholder for the European Commission DG R&I Ethics Sector. A key component of ERION are the European projects on ethics, integrity, responsible research: SOPs4RI, iRECS, PATTERN which are working for a strong responsible research integrity culture in Europe and increasing trust in science.

The community meets 2 to 4 times per year. Topics discussed in past ERION meetings included: Horizon Europe, Open Science, GDPR implementation, training (see report), ethics support in times of COVID-19, research evaluation and many others. More information on the EARMA website and EARMA YouTube channel.

There are around 400 members in the community. To get connected and engage with the other community members, register here
