Institutional Ethics Committee for Research (IECR)…
As PHG started undertaking various forms of research through national and international collaborations and as most of the research was likely to involve human subjects, that too from a highly vulnerable population (HIV infected individuals) it was decided that PRAYAS would have its own independent ethics committee to strengthen and institutionalize ethical practices in conducting research. PRAYAS constituted its Independent Ethics Committee for Research on 1st of March 2007. Prayas registered its IECR at Indian Council of Medical Research in 2013 and the name was changed to Institutional Ethics Committee for Research, Prayas.
