Applying ethical standards and norms to research both improves its quality and advances the research, in addition to protecting the rights of research participants. Arabic-speaking countries in the Middle East and North Africa suffer from a low level or non-existent availability of training in research ethics despite a growing research profile and level of activities in most of these countries. Our program, The Research Ethics Education Program in Jordan, was able in the past 5-year cycle to make an impressive impact on addressing this lack of training by achieving its proposed goals and more. There were 118 faculty and researchers trained during this period in the Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) from across 25 institutions in 12 different countries in the region. Those who graduated are strongly committed to continue their career in this field. In addition, more than 2,175 other graduate students, researchers, and faculty across the MENA region received training in RCR by our fellows and instructors through 45 different workshops during this period. Fellows have also led the publication of 40 peer-reviewed papers. In at least five academic institutions fellows are leading the establishment of ethics committees for the first time, and many are now members or leading existing ethics committees. We also achieved a three-fold higher representation of women among our fellows than currently found in academia in Jordan and many of the MENA countries, with 4 of our female fellows assuming administrative academic positions as deans and one as department chair. Our goal is to continue these achievements and take this program to the next level by establishing the first Master of Bioethics for the MENA which would be provided locally by the host research-intensive University, the Jordan University of Science and Technology (JUST). JUST will also establish a comprehensive Center for Research Ethics that will carry on the program’s training at multiple levels and offer certification and workshops in RCR. Arabic language certification in RCR will also be made available to universities in the MENA. If funded for renewal we will be able to transition the activities of the current program from the US-based-institution to the LMIC-based institution represented by JUST. Both the master’s, the proposed center, and the Arabic language RCR certification will provide vital capacity building in the region. It is being offered by a local university to graduate highly qualified trainees ready to lead the region in bioethics and responsible conduct of research, and expand the breadth of RCR training at the individual and institutional levels in the MENA. We have created a paradigm shift in the social norms associated with research and research ethics among our fellows, and at JUST. In this next phase we will expand on our success by adding more in-depth training offered through the Master of Bioethics and increase the breadth of dissemination of our activities through a greater number of MENA research and academic institutions.

将道德标准和规范应用于研究既可以提高其质量，又可以推进研究， 除了保护中东和阿拉伯语国家的研究参与者的权利。 尽管北非的研究伦理培训不断增长，但其培训水平较低或根本不存在。 我们的研究道德教育项目在大多数国家的研究概况和活动水平。 约旦的计划在过去 5 年周期内对解决这一缺乏问题产生了令人印象深刻的影响 在此期间，共有 118 名教师和研究人员接受了培训。 12 个不同国家的 25 个机构参与了负责任的研究行为 (RCR) 活动 那些毕业的人都坚定地致力于继续在这一领域的职业生涯。 中东和北非地区超过 2,175 名其他研究生、研究人员和教师接受了 RCR 培训 在此期间，我们的研究员和讲师通过 45 个不同的研讨会进行了指导。 发表了 40 篇经过同行评审的论文，其中至少有 5 个学术机构的研究员处于领先地位。 首次设立道德委员会，许多人现在是成员或领导现有的道德规范 我们的研究员中的女性比例也比目前高出三倍。 在约旦和许多中东和北非国家的学术界发现，我们的 4 名女性研究员假设 我们的目标是继续担任院长和系主任等行政学术职位。 并通过为中东和北非地区建立第一个生物伦理学硕士，将该计划提升到一个新的水平 这将由东道主研究密集型大学约旦科技大学在当地提供 和技术（JUST）还将建立一个综合性研究伦理中心，该中心将开展研究伦理工作。 该计划的多个级别的培训，并提供 RCR 认证和研讨会。 RCR 认证也将提供给中东和北非地区的大学，如果获得续展资助，我们将获得资助。 能够将当前计划的活动从美国机构转移到中低收入国家 以 JUST 为代表的机构，包括硕士、拟建中心和阿拉伯语 RCR。 认证将为该地区的毕业生提供重要的能力建设。 高素质的受训人员准备好领导该地区的生物伦理学和负责任的研究行为，并扩大 中东和北非地区个人和机构层面 RCR 培训的广度我们创建了一个范例。 我们的研究员中与研究和研究道德相关的社会规范的转变，以及在这方面。 下一阶段，我们将通过增加通过硕士提供的更深入的培训来扩大我们的成功 生物伦理学并通过更多的中东和北非地区扩大我们活动的传播广度 研究和学术机构。
