SRA Ethics Forum
This free service for SRA members is a confidential forum for members needing advice or guidance about an ethics issue.
How it works
Email:
Ron Iphofen with your question or request.
Specify in your email if you would like to be anonymous/unattributable.
Your question/request will then be circulated to the members of the ethics forum who have considerable combined experience of social research across different sectors. Members of the forum give their time voluntarily.
Their responses are collated and sent back to you, usually within seven working days. You’ll benefit from a range of expert opinion.
Note: this is a peer mentoring activity. The decision about what you do with any advice is entirely yours. Neither the SRA nor members of the forum are accountable in any way for actions you take to resolve an ethical issue.
