EthicNet is a collection of codes of journalism ethics from member states of the Council of Europe. The collection was formed on the basis of numerous research projects carried out since late 1970s at the University of Tampere, Department of Journalism and Mass Communication, and in cooperation with UNESCO and the International Organization of Journalists. The latest update was done by a project on the development of journalism ethics in Finland and Europe funded by the Helsingin Sanomat Foundation. In June 2008 the collection included altogether 50 codes from 46 countries – from Albania to United Kingdom (the latter with two codes).
