The European Network for Academic Integrity (ENAI) was established in 2015 in Czechia. It is an association gathering educational institutions and individuals interested in maintaining and promoting academic integrity. ENAI has been covered by mainstream and online media such University World News.[1] and Times Higher Education.[2]
History and Early Development
[edit]The European Network for Academic Integrity was developed following the collaboration of a group of scholars and advocates in Europe.
Under the leadership of Irene Glendinning (Coventry University, UK), principal investigator for the IPPHEAE project (Impact of Policies for Plagiarism in Higher Education across Europe) la group of scholars set out to map plagiarism at higher education institutions in the European Union. The research team identified in institutional and national policies, as well as examples of good practice. The project was the first of its kind in Europe and resulted in a number of scholarly and policy outputs that subsequently influenced and impact the development of plagiarism and academic integrity policies across the continent[3][4][5][6][7][8].
The IPPHEAE project concluded 2013 with an international conference focused on plagiarism, its detection and prevention. The conference was entitled, "Plagiarism Across Europe and Beyond". The conference was hosted by a project partner, Mendel University who hosted the event in Brno, Czechia. This inaugural conference is commonly referred to as the first ENAI conference, even though the network did formalize until 2015.
Two years after the initial conference, researchers at Mendel University in Brno hosted the next international conference entitled, Plagiarism Across Europe and Beyond 2015, which also took place Brno. At the closing gala supper of the conference, which took place on a steam boat on Brno reservoir during a firework festival the idea of an European network for academic integrity was inspired for the first time.
Subsequently, ENAI was formally registered as a non-profit organization based in Czechia.
ENAI Mission and Governance
[edit]ENAI’s mission is to support higher education institutions and individuals to collaborate in the field of academic integrity. This includes, but is not limited to the development of Open Educational Resources (OER) on academic integrity, as well as on research and collaboration.
The network is governed by an elected board who volunteer for three-year terms[9].
Annual conferences
[edit]ENAI hosts an annual conference that brings together scholars, policy-makers, professionals and students to share the latest research on topics related to academic integrity. The annual conference has been hosted in the following locations:
- 2025 – Sweden
- 2024 – Canada
- 2023 – UK
- 2022 – Portugal
- 2021 – (Online, due to COVID-19)
- 2020 – (Online, due to COVID-19)
- 2019 – Lithuania
- 2018 – Turkey
- 2017 – Czechia
- 2015 – Czechia
- 2013 - Czechia
A book of abstracts and conference proceedings are published as a result of the annual conference.[10][11][12]
Contributions to the Field of Academic Integrity
[edit]Researchers and experts associated with ENAI have made various contributions to the field of academic integrity. Among the most notable is the multilingual glossary for academic integrity that offers translations in eleven languages of terms such as academic integrity, plagiarism, and contract cheating, among others[13][14].
Researchers affiliated with ENAI have conducted empirical research and policy recommendations on topics relating to text-matching software[15][16] and the ethics of generative artificial intelligence in academia[17]. Scholars affiliated with ENAI were historically influenced by the late Professor Tracey Bretag. Professor Bretag passed away in 2020 and ENAI celebrated her life with the publication of a Festschrift in her honour[18].
Another notable projects connected with ENAI and its affiliated research include the Partnership on University Plagiarism Prevention (PUPP), which received $2,49 Million CAD in funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). This project is the most highly-funded research on academic integrity in history.
In addition, the Bridging Integrity in Higher Education, Business and Society (BRIDGE) project, was co-funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union. Outputs from this project aim to connect educational integrity to ethical decision-making in business and in society[19][20]
ENAI researchers also conduct evidence-informed advocacy work. For example, the Facing Academic Integrity Threats (FAITH) project, also funded by the Erasmus+ Programme of the European Union, is supported by a consortium of 5 European universities[21].
Working Groups
[edit]ENAI facilitates working groups that bring together international scholars, students, and higher education staff to collaborate on topics such as academic integrity policies[22], research design and development[23], student advocacy, and publication ethics. Working groups meet on a regular basis and are led or co-led by Board members, sometimes working in collaboration with other experts in the field.
