Research governance and ethics resources repository
Date: 26 February 2026
The research governance frameworks and associated documentation below have kindly been shared by local authorities. You may find these useful examples to refer to if you are considering developing or updating a research governance framework or process within your organisation.
Each local authority adopts its own approach to research governance, and processes and procedures naturally vary across organisations. We do not endorse one particular approach over another and would be happy to discuss the value of different methodologies.
We are not responsible for the content of the documents shared by local authorities. Please note that these documents may be updated at the source periodically. We recommend also visiting each local authority’s research governance webpage to ensure you have the most current information.
