Path2integrity

The background of Path2Integrity is: With the European research landscape rapidly changing, it is becoming increasingly essential to emphasise research integrity and to start handling new scientific techniques in a clear and accessible way. Research integrity is an integral part of innovation, growth, and high-quality jobs. It results in more efficient, appropiate, useful, and reliable scientific evidence for policy-makers and entrpreneurs, where decisions based on research results can lead to a better future. The aims of Path2Integrity are: Path2Integrity will support formal and informal learning methods and will contribute to establishing a culture of research integrity by:* Establishing excellent learning paths with research integrity role-models and rotatory role-playing by developing and disseminating a Path2Integrity handbook of instruction;* Raising awareness of scientific facts about research integrity and role-models in educational organisations through a widespread Path2Integrity campaign;* Achieving wide-spread implementation of excellent learning paths, by using existing and successful educational practices as a foundation and international collaborations across four continents, along with robust assessment methods;* Creating units for learning research integrity that address everyone either directly or indirectly involved in research, inlcuding secondary school students, undergraduates, graduates, and young researchers. It's a consortium of 8 partners from 5 EU member states: Hochschule Coburg, Syddansk Universitet, 3C Compliance, Pensoft Publishers, Fundació Catalana per a la Recerca i la Innovació, EUREC office gUG, Christian-Albrechts-Universität zu Kiel, Instytut Badán Edukacyjnych. Our experts are from Mexico, Canada, Zambia, Austria, Germany and Taiwan. Path2Integrity receives funding until 31st December 2021 from the EU Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme.
