Sammanfattning

Through reflections about a case study concerning an unfeasible, planned research study on nurses’ working days during the COVID-19 pandemic, the article aims to describe and discuss legal and ethical challenges when conducting European-based research together with nurses in third countries. The article highlights how the General Data Protection Regulation challenges EU and non-EU research collaborations and research across borders in healthcare research. Digitally recorded interview data can be traced, putting both research participants and researchers at risk in relation to confidentiality, safety and potential critical views by national regimes. This raises ethical claims for research collaborations between EU and third countries and hampers the possibilities to make silent voices discernible through research. It is a questionable solution both to collaborate and not to collaborate with third countries such as China. Further reflections on the ways forward to facilitate research collaboration between EU and third countries are needed.
