Successful project completion: irecs conference in Brussels
With the final conference held on 11–12 December 2025 in Brussels, the DRZE-coordinated EU project irecs came to a close after three years. Through 15 presentations, two panel discussions, and numerous exchanges, international project partners, stakeholders, and experts came together to reflect on project results, share experiences, and discuss perspectives for the sustainable implementation of research ethics.
Among the project’s key outcomes are the Implementation Guide and the comprehensive Training Materials, which were developed, tested, and further refined over the course of the project. These resources systematically bring together the insights generated within irecs and provide practical guidance for a wide range of institutional and national contexts. In this way, irecs has laid a solid foundation on which future initiatives, training formats, and follow-up projects in the field of research ethics can build.
