Ethics & Integrity

Human verification, transparent methods, responsible AI, attribution and evidence standards.

Overview

Ethics & Integrity

Ethics and integrity are conditions for publication at the Research Center, not optional extras. Every approved output must show its question, evidence, analysis, limitations and review pathway, and must be verified by a responsible human researcher.

AI may assist with discovery, organisation and drafting, but it never produces final conclusions on its own. Sources must be attributed, personal data protected, and fieldwork conducted with informed consent. Errors, when found, are corrected openly.

Core standards

  • Human verification of all outputs

  • Responsible, disclosed AI use
  • Proper attribution and citation
