Welcome Message The organising committee of the 4th Asia Pacific Conference on Educational Integrity warmly welcomes you to the University of Wollongong, New South Wales,

Australia for this conference. To those of you who have participated in previous Asia Pacific Conferences on Educational Integrity, or who have connected through the International Journal for Educational Integrity, this is an opportunity to continue the conversation. To those who are newer to this exciting interdisciplinary field, we look forward to your critical insights and interventions over the coming days … and beyond. Many of the participants are local, but we are also welcoming people from the United States, Singapore, New Zealand and Canada. Educational integrity is always topical, highly-charged, of-the-moment, equal parts affective and intellectual, whether the issue being debated is the place of school league tables, the recruitment of international students, the role of the teacher in the ‘Googlised ’ world, the moral remit of the university, the temptation to plagiarise and cheat, or the ancient and pervasive practice of academic ‘patronage’. We hope that many of the issues brought to the conference sessions will be hotly debated and potential solutions avidly discussed
