Abstract: The EECERA Ethical Code for Early Childhood Researchers outlines underpinning ethical principles as well as practice guidance to ensure that research undertaken globally within the field of early childhood is done so ethically. This revised ethical code has been expanded to ensure that current global issues such as sustainability and the advancement of technology are evident. It also considers a rising prevalence of desk-based research as we recognise that all research warrants sufficient ethical consideration. International early childhood researchers, under the direction of the EECERA board of trustees, have drawn upon their research experience in this collaborative document which has been reconsidered in light of specific challenges to our field. It is hoped that this revised EECERA Ethical Code will encourage all researchers to acknowledge the layers of ethical complexity that invariably occur when working within the field of early childhood research.
