Explore XR

To find out how to get more involved, click here to join one of our online sessions.

Become an Explorer to deepen your understanding of XR and find out how you can get more involved.


Delve into our Explorer resources if you'd like to take on a role anywhere in XRUK (your local group, your region or a UK-wide team) and find the type of role that suits you best.

These resources are great for people new to XR but if you have been around for longer you may find it useful too - we bet you’ll learn something you didn’t know!

    • How to use XR’s communication tools
    • Meeting skills
    • Prepare for Action (NVDA)
    • Know your Rights
    • How XR works and who makes the decisions
    • Citizens' Assemblies
    • What is a Regenerative culture?

    • Our resources have been described as...

      “Inspiring, brilliant, rigorous, intelligent”

      If you would like support, please get in touch by emailing volunteer@extinctionrebellion.uk


      The Explorer Resources use various different platforms:
      1. ZOOM SESSIONS
        Click on the link above to find full information about your Course Zoom Sessions and click HERE for information on registering for them and what to do if you cannot attend.
        We recommend that you register for all of the live Zoom Sessions as soon as you are ready, but please remember that the Course Schedule is dynamic so things may change a little. If a session is moved to a different date, we will email you if you are registered but please recheck the schedule before you enter any live Zoom Session, in case you missed the email.

      2. XR TUBE
        XRUK has its own version of YouTube called XR Tube and the Foundation Programme has its own Playlist where all the recorded Zoom Sessions can be found. To access a recording via the Course Schedule, simply click on the link to watch.

        Recordings of live Zoom Sessions are for the convenience of students who cannot attend the live session. However, not all Zoom Sessions are suitable for being recorded. Please see the page on Zoom Sessions for more information.

      3. REBEL TOOLKIT
        This is XRUK’s amazing online resource library, the platform you're using right now! It's accessible to anyone, anywhere in the world.
        Click on the link above to go to the Rebel Toolkit homepage.

      4. REBELLION ACADEMY
        This is our online learning platform, offering a range of interactive study sessions. Every time you complete a session, you get a badge ... okay, it's a virtual one but it's still a badge!
