DANFIF is a new network for researchers, educators and administrators with an interest in topics related to integrity in research and good academic practice.
Background
The network was established in connection with a start-up meeting at SDU in the spring of 2025. The meeting was initiated by colleagues at the University of Southern Denmark, Aarhus University and the University of Copenhagen, with the aim of establishing a unifying, interdisciplinary platform on research integrity.
Purpose
DANFIF aims to promote dialogue, cooperation and knowledge sharing on good academic practice in Denmark. The network has a particular focus on promoting good practice and coherence in Denmark through:
- Exchange of experience and cooperation on research, teaching and supervision across institutions and disciplines
- Bridging the gap between research, teaching and administrative support within the field of research integrity
- Dissemination and debate of guidelines and policies within the field
- Facilitated discussions of ethical questions and dilemmas from practice
Members
DANFIF is open to employees at Danish universities, university colleges, sector research institutions and similar who work with and/or have a professional interest in good academic practice. For example, you can be a trainer in courses in responsible conduct of research, a member of a research ethics committee or practice committee, have an administrative role in relation to these, or conduct research within the area.
Activities
The network meets physically once a year. Virtual network meetings are held once or twice a year in thematic subgroups. The activities are offered to members.
Organisation and contact
DANFIF is run by a steering committee and also has contacts at the individual institutions. You are always welcome to get in tough with the steering committee or your local contact person for more information.
