It is resolved that an IUPAP Working Group on Ethics (WG18) be formed with the following mission:
Mission/Mandate
- To survey international ethics standards across societies, journals, and funding agencies, including hiring practices.
- To consider these accumulated data to develop a set of international ethics standards.
This mission would first be applied to ethics concerning traditional scientific misconduct, including plagiarism, misuse of public funds, fabrication or misrepresentation of data, and accuracy in self representation. Later, in collaboration with WG5, the mission would include ethical standards to prevent and establish lines of actions in cases of harassment and sexual misconduct.
