Scientific quality assurance and thus, ensuring scientific integrity, is necessary in the entire scientific process: from setting the agenda to the study design, from collection and processing of data to the publication and interpretation of results. Ensuring Scientific Integrity has individual as well as systemic requirements. It touches upon ethical as well as technical questions.
This global digital exchange of ideas and experiences on scientific integrity for stakeholders from UNESCO-related networks and science policy, organised by the UNESCO and the German Commission for UNESCO, aims to discuss questions on the nature and relevance of Scientific Integrity, challenges and good practices related to it as well as future actions to take.
