Research Security

In a complex global landscape, protecting our research is an active and collective commitment to Responsible Research and Innovation. 

This framework relies on researchers taking ownership of their own activities. By committing to understanding our partners, protecting our intellectual property and ensuring our research is used for its intended positive intention. Researchers have the responsibility to safeguard our academic freedom and the integrity of their work. While promoting a commitment to fostering vibrant international relationships.
