As an inclusive and interdisciplinary network, fostering a respectful, professional, and constructive environment is essential for all participants.

We encourage all members to review the following documents carefully and uphold the principles of ethics, respect, and good conduct outlined in them across all COST Action activities, including meetings, workshops, online discussions, and publications.

Rules and Principles for COST Activities

• The European Code of Conduct for Research Integrity, https://allea.org/code-of-conduct/
• Zero-tolerance code of conduct - Counteracting gender-based violence, including sexual harassment, in the EU research and innovation system, https://op.europa.eu/en/publication-detail/-/publication/6ce8aef5-70b3-11ef-a8ba-01aa75ed71a1/language-en.

By adhering to these guidelines, we can ensure that our community remains welcoming, supportive, productive, inclusive, comfortable, and safe for everyone.

If you witness or experience any breach of the Code of Conduct principles, please contact the Chair or Vice-Chair of the Action, either by email or in person. They are committed to handling all reports with the utmost confidentiality.
