We are committed to advancing research ethics and integrity across the sciences and with special focus on key sectors as depicted below. We see our work as a dimension of the stewardship of science overall and as a contribution to global public good.
We provide below an ongoing stream of key articles, commentary, grey literature and other content relevant to our purpose.
ALLEA STATEMENT ON EARLY LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES FOR SHAPING A SCIENTIFICALLY LITERATE SOCIETY
2024 [14 Mar 2024]
This ALLEA Statement, prepared by the ALLEA Working Group Science Education, argues that primary and post-primary science education play a key role in supporting all young learners in gaining insight into how the natural sciences are integral to our everyday lives, thereby contributing to their development into informed and active citizens. It advocates for strengthening the role of early science education curricula in improving the public’s understanding of the Nature of Science (NOS) and research ethics, which will enable the creation of a scientifically literate society.

Science must be inclusive and not exclusive says UN expert
Press release .OHCHR – Special Procedures
GENEVA (7 March 2024) – The right to participate in science must be recognised for everyone, and not restricted to a few, a UN expert said today.
“The right of everyone to share in scientific advancement and its benefits has been recognised for decades in international instruments. Yet, it is not implemented across the board as a human right. Science may only have transformative positive effects, if conducted within a human rights framework,” said Alexandra Xanthaki, the Special Rapporteur on cultural rights.
In her report to the Human Rights Council, Xanthaki regretted the many ways in which the right to science was being undermined. They include attacks against academic and scientific researchers, limits to public funding, the acceleration of the commodification of science, and the instrumentalisation of science through misinformation and disinformation to manipulate public opinion, often also to serve private interests.
“The right to participate in science does not mean that everyone should be recognised as a high-level scientific researcher. But people might do research in their own fields of expertise or interest, in relation to their own concerns and aspirations, using knowledge and refining it for their own personal development,” the expert said. Xanthaki explained that there were many ways in which people can participate in science without undermining the expertise of scientific professionals, complementing it in many ways and demanding that science respond to their needs and those of wider society.
“The meaning of science must be inclusive and not exclusive, giving full consideration to scientific diversity,” the expert said, calling for a decolonised understanding of science. She said this meant understanding sciences in the plural form, from various traditions and cultural backgrounds, in various languages and following diverse ways of researching and conducted by a variety of scientific or epistemic communities, from local ones to cross-cultural ones.
“States must ensure that everyone has different opportunities to participate and depart from the rigid distinction between the scientist who produces science and the general population, entitled only to enjoy the benefits derived from research conducted by scientists,” she said.
