<p class="MsoNormal">Liebe Kolleg*innen,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">wir freuen uns, Ihnen mitteilen zu können, dass die <b>Ethikleitlinien des Netzwerks Fluchtforschung e.V.</b> Open-Access auf Deutsch und Englisch erschienen sind.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Das multidisziplinäre und multimethodische Feld der Fluchtforschung erfordert strenge ethische Standards. Forschende müssen die Würde, Rechte und das Wohl aller Teilnehmenden schützen, insbesondere von Personen mit gelebter Fluchterfahrung.
Die Ethikleitlinien bieten einen praktischen Rahmen, um den gesamten Forschungsprozesses ethisch verantwortungsvoll durchzuführen.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Die Ethikleitlinien basieren auf langjährigen Debatten und stützen sich auf bestehende Ethikkodizes. Sie wurden 2024 nach einem partizipativen Prozess finalisiert, an dem Forschende aus verschiedenen Disziplinen mit und ohne gelebter Fluchterfahrung
beteiligt waren. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Die Ethikleitlinien finden Sie unter: <a href="https://fluchtforschung.net/ethikleitlinien/">
https://fluchtforschung.net/ethikleitlinien/</a> und <a href="https://fluchtforschung.net/ethics-guidelines/">
https://fluchtforschung.net/ethics-guidelines/</a> <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk180329940"><span lang="EN-US">Forced migration studies, as a multidisciplinary and multi-methodological field, demands rigorous ethical standards. Researchers must safeguard the dignity, rights, and well-being
of all participants, especially those with lived displacement experiences. The Ethics Guidelines provide a practical framework for conducting research in an ethically responsible manner throughout the research process.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-bookmark:_Hlk180329940"><span lang="EN-US">The Ethics Guidelines are based on long-standing debates and build upon existing codes of ethics. They were finalised in 2024 following a participatory process that involved researchers
from diverse disciplines, both with and without lived experience of displacement.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
