Our vision is that the UK’s research system continues to be known for its research integrity, which:
- is central to all work and actions of all individuals, groups, and organisations in research
- enhances and protects the quality of research
- safeguards confidence in research
Collaboration is at the heart of the UK Committee on Research Integrity. We invite and encourage views from the research community.
Objectives
Our objectives are to:
- promote research integrity across the UK and internationally
- maintain and support high integrity in all research environments and across all disciplines
- support good governance of research practice, including through strategic input into processes relating to regulation and assurance
- explain how research integrity improves the wider environment, along with research culture
- identify how systemic pressures affect research integrity, and improve the system to reduce these pressures
- work widely with research organisations, including higher education institutions, research institutes, public, private and third sector organisations
- collaborate with existing bodies on national and local levels to enhance research integrity in the UK
