On 3–4 September 2025, the third working meeting of the consortium of the EU Erasmus+ project “ETHICS – Responsible Conduct of Research: Research Integrity and Ethics in Georgian Universities” was held in Brno, Czech Republic. The event was hosted by Masaryk University.

This meeting represented a strategic stage of the “ETHICS” project, bringing together partner institutions from Georgia and the European Union.
