Ethical practice guidelines for public involvement and community engagement
The ARC North East and North Cumbria has launched a new guide aimed at supporting ethical public involvement and community engagement (PICE) in research. The guidance highlights some of the key aspects that people might want to consider before undertaking PICE activity, and includes useful links to further reading and information. The guidance also includes a handy ‘checklist’ that can be used by researchers and others, to make sure that key ethical issues have been considered.
