Ethics Guidelines of the German Network for Forced Migration Studies
Contribution | 2024
Abstract
The Ethics Guidelines of the German Network for Forced Migration Studies place the respect for human dignity and safeguarding the rights and well-being of all research participants, especially but not exclusively those with lived experience of displacement, at the heart of all research processes. The aim is to support ethical considerations, reflections and practices in Forced Migration Studies scholarship regardless of the chosen research methods. The Guidelines provide a practical framework for academics to make ethically informed decisions throughout the research process.
The 5th conference of the Network for Displacement Research brings together researchers to shed light on the global, regional and local contexts of flight and displacement, including the causes and trends that force people to be mobile, but also immobile.
