Summary of Research Integrity Concordat Signatories Group meetings

May 2025

In May, the RICS group convened for their first formal meeting since the launch of the refreshed concordat in April. The group discussed the positive feedback received so far and plans to produce alternative formats of tables and infographics to enhance accessibility and their usefulness for training and planning.

Over the next year, the RICS group will refresh their governance framework, including their terms of reference, future operating model, and other processes. They will also review the annual statement template and develop plans for the next annual forum meeting. The group will reconvene in September, and another meeting summary will be shared with the community.
