The FAITH project team created a survey on experiences and support needs regarding academic integrity, academic misconduct and questionable practices. The data from this survey will be used to improve the Portal. Please, help us by filling in the survey and by sharing it with your colleagues and students.

More information and  the survey in other languages are available here.
