The '''Advanced Research and Assessment Group''' (ARAG) is a department of the [[Defence Academy of the United Kingdom]] concerned with long-term planning and threat assessment. 

ARAG brings together experts from the military, academia and other fields in "research clusters" dedicated to specific areas of concern, in order to provide policy-makers with focussed analysis of international security issues. 

ARAG works closely with the [[Conflict Studies Research Centre]], which is now co-located with ARAG at the Defence Academy's Shrivenham campus.
