Family Health International (FHI) Research Ethics Training Curriculum for Community Representatives (RETC-CR)

FHI's Office of International Research Ethics (OIRE) has developed a dynamic and innovative curriculum to empower community representatives through training and education to act as a competent voice for research participants worldwide. Developed and field-tested in eight countries, the Research Ethics Training Curriculum for Community Representatives (RETC-CR) helps community representatives to understand the research process and their roles and responsibilities as partners of the research team. The Curriculum also explains the corresponding roles and responsibilities of Ethics Committees/IRBs and Researchers. The RETC-CR addresses universal principles of research ethics, informed consent, ethics committees and other important issues.  The RETC-CR was recipient of The 2005 Distinguished Award of the Society for Technical Communication.
