Using ACLED dataset on political violence against women

Academia and civil society organizations play a role in providing non-official data on political violence. The Armed Conflict Location and Event Dataset (ACLED) collects data on political violence using from reports from selected local, national, and international organizations. In 2019, ACLED released a new categorization in the political violence dataset, providing a full analysis of data on political violence targeting women.
