ARK (Access Research Knowledge) is a Northern Irish website which was established in 2000 by researchers at Queen's University Belfast and Ulster University. Its primary stated goal is to "increase the accessibility and use of academic data and research".[1]

The ARK website is intended for use by researchers, teachers, schoolchildren, policy makers, journalists, community/voluntary sector workers and "anyone with an interest in Northern Ireland Society and Politics".[2] It contains sections on elections, policy, ageing, surveys, publications and teaching.[3] ARK is also affiliated with the Conflict Archive on the INternet (CAIN).[4]
