EU Grants: How to complete your ethics self-assessment: V2.0 (2021) Directorate-General for Research & Innovation of the European Commission.

The EU Framework Programme for Research and Innovation “Horizon Europe” requires funding proposals to include an ethics self-assessment of the potential risks of misuse of the research project that could pose a threat to human beings, animals and the environment. The European Commission has published accompanying guidelines for completing the assessment. Amongst other things, the guidelines also recommend that advisory committees be established for relevant ethical issues (see page 42).
