While the challenges of consent in global research have received much attention, this session will review new challenges such as the emergence of electronic consent processes and best practices for organizations in the US and other countries conducting global research. The session will include perspectives from HRPPs in other countries who are also conducting global research and who can address different country-specific requirements and differences in cultural norms.

Learning Objectives:

Describe the use of emerging technologies such as the use of electronic devices to document consent, and the use of social media to engage communities in different countries, and how to integrate electronic consent processes and ensure compliance with drug and device regulatory agency requirements in the US and other countries
Describe best practices for US organizations conducting research in other countries
Address considerations for interventional social science and public health research in other countries
