The KIVI Code of Conduct provides ethical guidance on a number of topics; it discusses obligations to the wider society, such as minimizing the introduction of health and safety risks, research ethics, such as publication practices, and professional integrity, such as confidentiality duties.

Such ethical guidance is useless if one is not able to put it into practice. The assignment is application-oriented: In addition to deepening your understanding of the professional responsibilities themselves, we invite you to reflect on how this issue is dealt with within your working practice and organisation.
