The President of that association is Dr. NKAMHOUA Arnaud. The objective of Resilience is to help people in the fiels of health, education, sciences, techonology, culture, sport and physical activity.

The athletes of the UBSA also received personnal donation which consisted of travel passports and flight tickets.
