Including people with learning disabilities in research – A co-produced film
A short, animated film co-produced with people with learning disabilities that explains why it is important to include people with learning disabilities and autism in research. The presenters also talk about how to properly involve people with learning disabilities and autism in research and how research funders and university-based researchers can help to make sure research is more inclusive of people with learning disabilities. This film has been made by Boingboing together with ambassadors, co-researchers, staff, students and volunteers from Arts Connect, The Resilience Revolution and the University of Brighton.
This film was originally showcased at our June 2021 Resilience Forum: Including people with learning disabilities and autism in research. You can find out more about the forum and download the presentation slides here.

Resilience Framework for Children and Young People
This is the classic Resilience Framework for children and young people. The Framework summarises a set of ideas and practices that promote resilience. To create it we distilled what the resilience research base said into a handy table that sets out 42 resilient moves that can be made to support children and young people’s resilience. Available in multiple languages.
Resilience Framework Co-produced with Children in Blackpool
The Resilience Framework for Primary School children was co-produced by the Resilience Committee at Marton Primary School, Blackpool. The Marton Primary School children learned some valuable resilience and technological skills during the process, which involved rewording some of the items in a more meaningful way for the children, and we think it looks fab! Also available in Danish, German and Polish.
