Research Ethics Clearance is an instrument to measure the ethical fulfilment of a research process. Approval from the Ethics Committee or Institutional Review Board must be obtained before the research begins.

A good understanding of Research Clearance Ethics is necessary to avoid problems in conducting research and publishing research results.
