In March 2026, the Safeguard-DH Heritage Ethics Advisory Panel (HEAP) was established as part of the project's planned activities. The HEAP's role sits at the heart of the project's main objectives: it will advise the project team on ORRI strategy and tool development, assist in defining the ORRI performance indicators (KPIs), and provide feedback on the development of the ORRI tool and KPI public dashboard in the coming months.

The Safeguard-DH team extends its gratitude to all HEAP members for their willingness to participate and engage with the project.
