What is ethical approval, and why is it necessary in research and professional practices? How does the process of obtaining ethical approval ensure compliance with established ethical guidelines, and what role do institutional review boards or ethics committees play in this process? Additionally, in what contexts—such as medical research, social sciences, or corporate decision-making—is ethical approval required to protect individuals and uphold ethical standards?
Ethical approval is a process where a research ethics committee at KAHER reviews your research proposal to ensure it adheres to ethical principles, protecting the rights and welfare of participants involved in your study.
