Algerian flag - silken

Algeria has approved new measures for combating academic fraud at universities and other higher education institutions in an effort to protect academic integrity.

Algeria is to be congratulated for this move, especially including institutional responsibility for professional development on research integrity.

Hana Saada, a doctoral student at the University of Algiers Benyoucef Benkhedda, told University World News: “These new measures are highly appreciated, intervening at the right moment, given the increasing cases of academic misconduct.”

Algeria has the fourth-highest rate of research retractions of the 10 Arab North African countries, after Libya, Egypt and Tunisia, with 0.0350% of papers published by researchers between 1996 and 2018 ending up being retracted, according to a recent press report based on figures derived from Retraction Watch, an independent website that tracks academic papers that have been officially declared false.
