CRESIB Subscribes to the Principles of the European Charter for Researchers

As part of its commitment to improving conditions for research and researchers, ISGlobal's research centre, CRESIB, in a process approved by its Internal Scientific Committee, has subscribed to the principles underpinning of the European Charter for Researchers and Code of Conduct for the Recruitment of Researchers. Many leading research institutions across Europe have already committed to aligning their policies with the recommendations of this initiative, including CREAL (Centre for Research in Environmental Epidemiology), which is a member of the ISGlobal alliance. Con esta adhesión se culmina el proceso aprobado por el Comité Científico Interno.

The European Charter for Researchers is a set of general principles and requirements that specify the roles, responsibilities and entitlements of researchers, employers and funders and includes recommendations for good practices relating to non-discrimination, gender equality and intellectual property rights.

The Charter addresses all researchers in the European Union at all stages of their career and covers all fields of research in the public and private sectors. Its aim is to ensure that the nature of the relationship between researchers and employers or funders is conducive to successful performance in generating, transferring, sharing and disseminating knowledge and technological development,  and to the career development of researchers. The Charter also recognises the value of all forms of mobility as a means for enhancing the professional development of researchers.
