About ENAI
The European Network for Academic Integrity (ENAI) was founded in 2017 within an Erasmus+ KA2 project with the same name. The project (2016-2019) included 12 partners from 11 countries and aimed at creating and producing various resources supporting and enhancing academic integrity.
ENAI is an association registered in the Czech Republic, governed by a Board with five members (natural persons) elected for three years. All expenses are regularly checked by the Auditing Group (also elected for three years). The supreme governing body is the Annual General Meeting, which takes place every year and enables the members not only to elect the Board and the Auditing Group, but also to discuss the activities of the association.
Educational institutions (without any geographical limitation) can become members of ENAI. Natural persons can join the organization as individual supporters. ENAI has more than 30 institutional members from Europe and adjacent regions and more than 20 individual supporters worldwide.
ENAI’s mission is to promote integrity in whole academia (i.e. education, research and other aspects of the academic sector), specifically:
- To collaborate towards research and promotion of academic integrity (AI);
- To provide a platform for academics across all sectors to investigate, exchange, develop, collaborate and access resources in the field of academic integrity;
- To offer opportunities for researchers, educators and practitioners to take a leadership role in the field of AI;
- To present best practices in the management of AI;
- To make available a central point of reference where issues of academic integrity can be discussed, researched, progressed and shared with the wider academic community;
- To organize conferences, workshops and other events;
- To network and collaborate with individuals and organizations actively pursuing related research;
- To appreciate individual and institutional efforts regarding academic integrity by offering awards.
