  • Informed consent must always be obtained from sampled individuals (or their parent/guardian).

  • The confidentiality of the sampled individuals must always be protected.

  • Researchers must strive to avoid misuse of the collected data.

  • Researchers should actively seek ways in which participation in their studies can bring benefits to the sampled individuals and their communities.
