The Working Group (WG) Research Ethics of the German Data Forum (RatSWD) has set up this website during its 7th appointment period (2020–2023) to collect “Best Practices in Research Ethics”. It is a portal that enables researchers, members of ethics committees, and university teachers to access structured and relevant information as well as research ethics-related templates by research institutions, academic associations, and funding institutions. The “Best Practices in Research Ethics” portal should be seen as an open service with information continuously being added.
