The TRUST project aims to put an end to exploitation in collaborative research that is undertaken in low and middle income countries. UCLan are leading this EU funded, Horizon 2020 (2.66 million Euros) project with13 partners. The output from the TRUST project has been considerable, including a Global Code of Conduct for Research in Resource Poor Settingsand the San Code of Research Ethics.

Creating and enhancing TRUSTworthy, responsible and equitable partnerships in international research

The Centre for Professional Ethics wasfounded in 1993 by Prof. Chris Henrywith the backing of Deputy ViceChancellor Alan Roff. It was designedto work outside the Faculty structure.In 1997, under Prof. Ruth Chadwick’sLeadership, and with the engagedsupport from Dr Andros Loizou, philosophy undergraduate and

postgraduate programs were integrated into the Centre. In 2001,under Prof. Matti Häyry’s leadership,the Centre was moved into the Faculty of Health led by Eileen Martin.

In 2008, under Prof. Doris Schroeder’sleadership, the research part of theCentre stayed in the Nursing

Department, led by Dr Bernard Gibbon,and the philosophy departmentmoved into another Faculty. Today, theCentre is part of the thriving Schoolof Health Sciences, led by RobinRichardson, in the Faculty of Healthand Wellbeing. Since its inception,Centre staff have contributed to allresearch exercises (RAEs and REFs).

The project REWARD (budget €1.9 million), led by Prof. Thomas Pogge, isopening up new horizons in complementing the international intellectualproperty rights system by developing a performance based reward tool forpharmaceutical innovation that, while leaving in place the existing patentregime, enhances access and creates considerable advantages for theglobal poor. REWARD is funded by a European Research Council AdvancedGrant. Reserved for world class researchers, this award is a unique markerof success for CPE.

PROFESSIONAL ETHICS

Samuel Ujewe obtained his PhD on The Ethical Foundation ofHealth Care Justice in Africa in January 2016. His external examinerwrote to the Director of Centre:“His is one of the very best PhDtheses I have ever examined and I must congratulate you for mentoring such an excellent student.” In the same year, Sam got married, learned that he wasgoing to be a father and obtaineda post doc position in Pretoria.
