RESILIENCE is a European cross-disciplinary research infrastructure serving the study of religion in all academic fields. It connects research centers, data holders and services distributed all over Europe and creates new instruments and services for its scientific community
RESILIENCE primarily serves the research community of the study on religion, which is conceived here as the full range of scientific disciplines related to the study of religion. Next to this RESILIENCE serves societal actors, including religious communities, governments, decision makers, individuals and institutions. RESILIENCE offers access to data, services, resources and expertise, as well as to reliable information on religion. Ahead of the launch of the RESILIENCE portal - which will offer a wide range of services - you can already explore the services our partners provide to support research in the study of religion.
RESILIENCE is currently in the Transition to Implementation Phase (2026-2028), in which we elevate RESILIENCE to a higher level of technical and scientific maturity and ensure its readiness for implementation. What can the future research infrastructure offer to its users?
Thirteen European institutions have joined forces to advance Religious Studies as a high-potential strategic field, as recognised by the ESFRI Forum. Their consortium is serving research by improving access to digital as well as physical data on religion and to advanced tools, training, existing research infrastructures and expertise for new, digital, and data-oriented research on religion on a global level.
RESILIENCE is listed in the ESFRI Roadmap 2021 and has received funding from the European Commission for its Transition to Implementation Phase (2026-2028), Grant Agreement 10129162.
