Policy Statement

We uphold the highest standards of honesty, accuracy, and accountability in all aspects of research. Data collection, analysis, and reporting are conducted with rigor, ensuring reproducibility and reliability. All contributions are properly acknowledged, and intellectual property is respected.

NAAMII prioritizes the well-being, privacy, and rights of individuals and communities involved in or impacted by our research. All human-centered projects follow strict ethical protocols, including informed consent, confidentiality, and culturally sensitive engagement.

We recognize that innovation carries both opportunity and responsibility. Our research aims to address pressing challenges in Nepal and globally, particularly in contexts of scarcity, inequity, and limited access. Projects are evaluated for potential social impact, unintended consequences, and long-term sustainability. 

NAAMII fosters an inclusive research environment that values diverse perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. We actively work to ensure equitable access to research participation, education, and collaboration, empowering talent regardless of geographical, social, or economic barriers. 

We encourage open, transparent, and ethical collaboration with academic, industry, and community partners. Research outputs, where appropriate, are shared openly to maximize benefit, reproducibility, and innovation for society at large.

Where relevant, our research considers environmental sustainability, minimizing negative ecological impact, and promoting practices that support a healthier planet.

Ethical research is an ongoing process. NAAMII regularly reviews policies, engages with stakeholders, and reflects on emerging ethical challenges in AI, technology, and science to ensure that our work remains responsible and aligned with societal good.
