038 - Prof Clionadh Raleigh - Mapping and Tracking Conflicts Around the World

<p>The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) is a disaggregated data collection, analysis, and crisis mapping project that collects information on the dates, actors, locations, fatalities, and types of all reported political violence and protest events around the world.</p> <p>I spoke with the creator, Clionadh Raleigh, a Professor of Political Violence and Geography at the University of Sussex. Since 2014, ACLED has operated as a non-profit, non-governmental organization incorporated in the USA. In 2022, ACLED expanded coverage to the entire world, collecting data in real time and publishing weekly updates. So far, ACLED has recorded a total of more than one million individual events globally.</p> <p>IMPORTANT NOTE: VISIT <a href= "https://youtu.be/sGQdXoodoRE">https://youtu.be/sGQdXoodoRE</a> to find the FULL video FREE on YouTube that showcases ACLED in action.
