Ethics Requirements

WP12 will ensure that the ethics requirements are fulfilled throughout the project. As HABITABLE’s research methods involve a large number of participants, it is essential that data protection measures and informed consent procedures are followed. This WP will also strive to achieve fair benefit-sharing arrangements with people involved from low and lower-middle income countries, in addition to ensuring social equity and stakeholder engagement. The project’s Ethics Board will work independently to monitor and advise on possible ethics issues that may arise throughout the project.
