ABOUT MEMBERSHIP

What REA membership offers

Research ethics raises questions that benefit from different experiences and perspectives. REA membership offers a way to connect with others, exchange ideas and explore the ethical issues that arise in research.

Whether your interest comes from conducting research, supporting others or taking part in ethical review, membership is an opportunity to learn from others and contribute your own perspective. You do not need to have all the answers to take part.
