Abstract
In a previous article related to ethical reflection around the study of human remains and their biological products in archaeological, ethnographic and museum contexts, a general scientific isolation - going against the common interest and leading to certain forms of misconduct - had been raised. It appeared a real need to act in the direction of transparency and a transdisciplinary union. This conclusion led to further reflection on the strengths and technical creation of a tool dedicated to the exchange between sciences relating to the study of man. We propose the creation of a platform dedicated to all international scientific actors whose issues are related to research on humans. This involves proposing the development of a participatory/collaborative virtual platform on which scientific organizations would exchange their study materials, their samples, their tools, their knowledge, their reflections and hypotheses and then the resulting data in order to no longer work in isolation. This multidisciplinary vision to the study of Man, without spatial or chronological boundaries, will be a contribution to each of the disciplines involved and the benefits of this platform are multiple. However, this coalition approach exposes academic, technical and legal difficulties and represents a real challenge because it requires profound changes.
