Abstract

The proposal for this special issue was ambitious, broad, and purposeful. Researchers must follow ethical and integrity principles throughout the research process, from design to reporting. There is a greater focus on research ethics and integrity in higher education institutions (HEIs) to avoid researcher misconduct, which can have a negative impact on the institution’s reputation. Many HEIs have established strategies to oversee and manage ethical issues related to research within their institutions because of this notion. The primary function of such guidelines is to monitor research studies, particularly, those involving human subjects, to ensure that they adhere to national and international ethical guidelines and standards. This special issue titled Research Integrity and Ethical Challenges in African Higher Education aims to emphasize the significance of ethics and integrity in the development of African educational practices, as well as the subsequent ethical challenges.
