The Arab Council for the Social Sciences (ACSS) is dedicated to fostering a safe, respectful, inclusive, and equitable environment across all its programs, events, research activities, and administrative operations.
We are pleased to introduce the updated version of our Code of Ethics and Conduct, which reinforces the ACSS commitment to integrity, mutual respect, and accountability. This code applies to all members, grantees, fellows, Board of Trustees members, committee members, staff, and participants in ACSS activities.
The Code addresses violations that affect ACSS mission, core values, and the safety and well-being of its community. Specifically, the ACSS strictly prohibits any breaches of academic and professional integrity, discrimination, exploitation, harassment and abuse of power. Individuals who witness or are affected by a misconduct, are encouraged and free to report the incident at the time they choose with or without disclosing their identity. They are also protected against retaliation.
Note: The full version of the Code of Ethics and Conduct is currently available in Arabic. Full translations into English and French are in progress and will be available soon.
