UK Extremism and Democratic Resilience Centre

LAUNCHING SOON

Tackling extremism, strengthening democracy

Britain finds itself in the midst of an accelerating extremism and cohesion crisis – a chronic erosion of our democratic way of life, values and culture.

UKEDRC will be the UK's first independent, evidence-led centre dedicated to understanding the scale of this threat and strengthening the democratic resilience that defends against it.

Britain Under Strain

A new UKEDRC report on Britain's broken social contract, rising democratic distrust, and the mainstreaming of extremism.

“Democracy does not maintain itself. It survives only because, generation after generation, enough of us choose to defend it, repair it and renew it.”

— Dame Sara Khan DBE, Executive Director, UK Extremism and Democratic Resilience Centre (UKEDRC)
