Evidence
Conclusions and recommendations must be grounded in the evidence available for the stated question and context.
Institutional independence
EALO's research is guided by evidence, methodology and professional research standards—not by political affiliation, funder preference or commissioned outcomes.
Funding Does Not Determine Findings.
Safeguards
Conclusions and recommendations must be grounded in the evidence available for the stated question and context.
Methods, scope and limitations should be stated clearly enough for readers to understand how the work was conducted.
Research quality is strengthened through appropriate scrutiny that is separate from a desired conclusion.
Funding, commissioning context and relevant support should be disclosed alongside the work they relate to.
