In each art and research project, specific ethical considerations will arise. This document is intended to act as a guide, as well as to flag certain aspects of your project that may need special care. It is important to pay attention to and anticipate the tensions specific to your project, as well as the relationships and dynamics within it. While considering the questions raised in the table below, it is important to discuss how each point will get addressed and who is responsible for what. In other words, defining roles and responsibilities is not just a logistical concern, it is an ethical one. These guidelines are about projects that involve community members who are engaged in or doing research and art, including as audiences. Ethical issues relevant to working relationships between artists and researchers are addressed in the Art and Research Partnership Agreement Template.
