Ethical Principles

The Institute is committed to ensuring that high ethical standards are embedded in everything it does, and has a series of ethical principles that inform the behaviour and actions of all members of the Institute community.

Those principles are as follows:

  • supporting the academic freedom to further knowledge and debate, within UK law.
