All researchers including staff and students conducting any research that may impact directly or indirectly on people, animals or the environment need to seek ethics clearance before any research is conducted.

Its research strategy recognizes the need for research to address local, regional and national needs. It seeks ways to engage in a critical dialogue with partners to build research in areas which complement the University’s historical niche as an African university whilst ensuring internationally recognized excellence. The University is supported by several national and international funders that offer competitive research grants to universities.</p><p>The Department of Research and Innovation (DRI) is responsible for strengthening research and innovation capacity at UFH. To ensure that research conducted at UFH has societal impact, UFH fosters the dissemination and application of research findings. Through DRI, the university has put in place an Intellectual Property and Innovation Office that identifies, protects and eventually commercialises intellectual property emanating from research conducted at UFH. To provide a platform on which academic researchers, postdoctoral research fellows, students and other UFH-affiliated researchers conduct research that is responsive to some needs of communities, UFH established various research entities that are aligned with UFH Strategic Plan 2022-2026. The research entities include the following:</p><p><strong>Research Niche Areas</strong></p><ul><li>Renewable Energy</li><li>Sustainable agriculture, water usage and impact of climate change</li><li>Infectious Diseases and Medicinal Plants</li><li>Research in Inclusion and Township Economies (RITE)</li></ul><p><strong>Research Institutes</strong></p><ul><li>Fort Hare Institute for Technology (Faculty of Science and Agriculture)</li><li>Fort Hare Institute for Social and Economic Research (Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities)</li></ul><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Research centres</strong></p><ul><li>SAMRC Microbial Water Quality Monitoring Centre (Faculty of Science and Agriculture)</li><li>Risk and Vulnerability Science Centre (Faculty of Science and Agriculture)</li><li>Centre for Leadership Ethics in Africa (Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities)</li><li>Fort Hare -Centre for Entrepreneurship and Rapid Incubator (Faculty of Management and Commerce)</li></ul><p> </p><p><strong>Research Chairs</strong></p><ul><li>AngloGold Ashanti Research Chair in Dairy Science and Technology</li><li>SARChI Chair in Social Change</li><li>SARChI Chair in Sexualities, Genders and Queer Studies</li><li>UNESCO Oliver Tambo Chair of Human Rights</li></ul> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-36dfd61 elementor-mobile-align-justify elementor-widget elementor-widget-button" data-id="36dfd61" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="button.default"> <a class="elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm" href="https://www.ufh.ac.za/ufh-research-ethics-policy-final-approved-nov2023-signed" target="_blank"> <span class="elementor-button-content-wrapper"> <span class="elementor-button-text">Research Ethics Policy</span> </span> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div data-dce-background-color="#112A43" class="elementor-element elementor-element-54de4e9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-parent" data-id="54de4e9" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"background_background":"classic"}"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-d269073 e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child" data-id="d269073" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"animation":"fadeInUp"}"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-b66a766 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading" data-id="b66a766" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="heading.default"> <h2 class="elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default">Our Approach to Research Ethics</h2> </div> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-f553912 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child" data-id="f553912" data-element_type="container"> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-0b8aa29 e-con-full e-flex elementor-invisible e-con e-child" data-id="0b8aa29" data-element_type="container" data-settings="{"animation":"fadeInUp"}"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-1bb019c requirementsAccordion elementor-widget elementor-widget-n-accordion" data-id="1bb019c" data-element_type="widget" data-settings="{"default_state":"all_collapsed","max_items_expended":"one","n_accordion_animation_duration":{"unit":"ms","size":400,"sizes":[]}}" data-widget_type="nested-accordion.default"> <div class="e-n-accordion" aria-label="Accordion.

In doing this, we review and approve research and teaching protocols for the use of animals, monitor ongoing projects and ensure that the animal handling facilities at the University are ethically managed. AREC is comprised of University of Fort Hare staff and independent external stakeholders to ensure that animal research and teaching is done to the highest ethical standard. AREC is registered with the National Research Ethics Council and reports to this entity on all activities done in the University. Through all of the above mechanisms, we hope to ensure that animal use at the University of Fort Hare remains ethically sound and responsible.</p> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-25178fb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="25178fb" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <h6>Resources</h6> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-4366dae elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor" data-id="4366dae" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="text-editor.default"> <p><strong>Standard Operating Procedures </strong></p> </div> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-966a9e7 customArrowBtn elementor-widget elementor-widget-button" data-id="966a9e7" data-element_type="widget" data-widget_type="button.default"> <a class="elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm" href="https://www.ufh.ac.za/ufharec_001-submission-of-applications-v1-2-august-2024" target="_blank"> <span class="elementor-button-content-wrapper"> <span class="elementor-button-icon"> <svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="11" height="11" viewBox="0 0 11 11" fill="none"><path d="M0.973031 10.7032L0.207031 9.93715L8.84486 1.2913H1.11889V0.208008H10.7022V9.7913H9.61889V2.06532L0.973031 10.7032Z" fill="white"></path></svg> </span> <span class="elementor-button-text">UFHAREC_001 -
