The purpose of the article was to study an effective strategies for addressing academic misconduct in universities and their practical implementation. An analysis was conducted of universities in various countries, including the USA, Germany, the United Kingdom, Australia, Japan, and South Korea, alongside a review of internal university documents outlining strategies and procedures for preventing academic misconduct. The findings of this study provided an analysis of the main factors that contribute to dishonest behaviour among students and faculty members. Furthermore, the research defined the concept of “academic misconduct”, and identifies its key elements, types, and the reasons why it occurs. The study also identified effective methods for preventing academic misconduct, including the use of technology to verify the authenticity of academic work, the introduction of honour codes, the implementation of educational campaigns, and ethics training. Fostering a culture of academic integrity and collaboration among all participants in the educational process remains a priority. Each country employs distinct methods to combat and prevent breaches of academic integrity. Recognising academic decommunisation as an integral part of the higher education system contributes to the development of intellectual and ethical culture among students and researchers. Variations in academic integrity requirements for students, lecturers, and researchers are reflected in differing levels of accountability for violations, based on an examination of international experience and practices. The study presented recommendations for improving existing approaches and developing new strategies to enhance academic integrity in educational institutions. The findings may be utilised by university lecturers to refine the educational process
