Enabling a resilient society
The UK Resilience Academy (UKRA) is the leading national provider of resilience training and education, expertise and resources.
We bring together people, organisations, and communities, convening them in the national resilience conversation, and equipping them with the tools and knowledge to help build greater societal resilience.
Resilience training and education, resources, and insights
Better decisions bring better outcomes for our communities. To help achieve this, the UKRA provides training, guidance and information across five areas of interest: Learn, Validate, Develop, Collaborate, Share.
No learning journey is the same and everybody’s needs are different. Therefore, these areas or ‘streams’ have been designed to be interlinked, with overlaps and reference to each other.
