UKRIO Webinar series
UKRIO (The UK Research Integrity Office) holds regular webinars on research integrity and related issues. In our webinar series, speakers from UKRIO and invited experts explore topics such as: publication ethics and authorship; research data; implementation of the Concordat to Support Research Integrity; research ethics; consent in research; and research integrity training.
Research Ethics
Research Ethics Online Training is adapted from an e-learning course and resource package designed and produced by the World Health Organization (WHO) for use by internal staff. Research is a vital ingredient for improved global health, and scientifically sound and ethically appropriate research is especially important in resource-poor settings where the need for locally applicable research findings is so great.

Research in Emergencies
This course focuses on the particular challenges that arise in emergencies, and should be read in conjunction with relevant national and international ethics guidance and regulatory frameworks for health-related research with human participants. It also highlights how the ethical issues that arise in emergencies may sometimes go beyond those covered in traditional research frameworks, including for example, important considerations of duties of fair collaboration that arise between researchers, and duties of care to those working on the frontline.
This course is available in English, French, and Spanish
Research Management Training workshop
The East Africa Consortium for Clinical Research (EACCR) invites applications from those who wish to attend a 3-day hybrid training workshop in research management. The workshop will cover practical skills in grant negotiation, stakeholder analysis and identification, uptake and dissemination of research findings, and monitoring and evaluation at both the proposal development and post-proposal stages. The training will take place on a hybrid basis from the 27th to the 29th of June 2023, online and in-person at the Uganda Virus Research Institute (UVRI) training room.
This regional training was organized by the EACCR3 project and funded by the European Union’s EDCTP2 Programme. The objective is to deliver hands-on practical training in the management of research projects with the aim of exposing participants to grant writing, monitoring and evaluation, and publication.
