Abstract
The debate around ethics review boards (IRBs) has assumed an increasingly central place in academic practice and discourse. In this article, we summarize a unique workshop (study-group) that convened at the University of Haifa, attended by 27 academics from around the globe, representing nine countries in four continents. The participants presented data and points of view, which served as the basis for an open, interdisciplinary discussion. The group developed a set of recommendations, including working toward a transition from a review system to an advisory and validation system; focusing on respectful research approach to participants, rather than ā€œethicalā€ research; building a procedure that focuses on feedback, rather than the process itself; recognizing that a unified examination need not necessarily be standardized; and constructing a feedback procedure in which researchers can respond to the review of their research.

An interesting discussion about how research ethics review and research ethics committees can shift to focussing less on compliance and more on facilitating ethical research. Ā AHRECS does a lot of work in this space. Ā We have helped many institutions (large and small) make this transition. Ā Email gary.allen@ahrecs.com if you’d like to discuss how we assist your institution.
