In order to ensure transparency and expediency within the Ethics Office, as well as the ethics committees that it supports, there is a very clear procedure that is in place, when a complaint is received

There are three types of complaints:

• Complaints from researchers about a member of the NWU-FNASREC itself
• Complaints from a member of NWU-FNASREC itself about a researcher
• Complaints received from a research participant, co-researcher, research assistant, or interested community member about research conduct and/or the researcher

If you would like to lay a complaint, please fill in this link: FNASREC Complaints – Fill out form
