Uppsala Conflict Data Program
The Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP) is the world’s main provider of data on organized violence and the oldest ongoing data collection project for civil war, with a history of almost 40 years. Its definition of armed conflict has become the global standard of how conflicts are systematically defined and studied. Explore and download data from the Uppsala Conflict Data Program.
VIEWS: the Violence & Impacts Early-Warning System
The Violence & Impacts Early-Warning System (VIEWS) is a cutting-edge conflict prediction system that generates monthly forecasts for violent conflicts across the world up to three years in advance. It is supported by the iterative research and development activities undertaken by the VIEWS consortium. Explore and access data from the VIEWS early-warning system.
