From our founding in 1991, we have provided impartial, evidence-based advice
and guidance to support decision makers in their navigation of the ethical dilemmas raised by developments in research and healthcare.
This report celebrates our impact through bringing together stories from our 35-year history. Many of these have evolved over years – sometimes even decades – reflecting both the enduring relevance of our work and the time that is often needed to achieve deep policy change and influence national conversations.
These stories demonstrate how our work can bring clarity to areas of significant
uncertainty. They showcase the value of engaging with the public to understand what trustworthy innovation looks like. And they capture how our work has helped to build the ethical foundations of policies, regulation and research that delivers equitable, transparent and beneficial outcomes for people and society.
