The Forum for Research Ethics at OsloMet is an interdisciplinary forum for discussion and reflections on questions and issues related to research ethics.
The forum aims to engage researchers in addressing foundational- and contemporary ethical questions that arise in research, and facilitate the exchange of relevant experiences across units, disciplines and institutions in Norway.
We gladly welcome suggestions for topics or events, as well as other input.
Seminars
The forum organizes open seminars on research ethical issues several times each semester. Sign up to our newsletter to be automatically notified.
