OECD: Opportunities, Challenges and Good Practices in International Research Cooperation between Developed and Developing Countries
This OECD report describes issues and options that deserve the attention of scientists and administrators in developed countries and in developing countries, as they seek to design, initiate and manage collaborative research programmes and projects that include both scientific and development goals
The Global Code of Conduct for Research in Resource-Poor Settings, aims to achieve fair partnerships in research, and has been adopted by both the European Commission and the European & Developing Countries Clinical Trials Partnership (EDCTP). The code has been designed specifically to combat ‘ethics dumping’ – the practice of exporting unethical research practices to lower-income settings. It provides guidance to researchers across all disciplines, and presents clear, short statements in simple language to achieve the highest possible level of accessibility.
