Abstract
This report shares findings regarding the nature of ethical issues experienced by researchers while conducting Global population health research (GPHR). It aims to reduce instances of discordance between GPHR researchers and agencies that support and oversee such research. In countries where unjust legal rules impinge on research practice, researchers and Ethics Board members especially need to understand the distinction between what is morally required and what is legally required. This is a comprehensive paper which moves towards re-writing research ethics guidelines, providing substantial recommendations, as a beginning.
