Cambodia: Political Violence and Demonstration Counts by Month

The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) provides weekly aggregated counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in Cambodia. This dataset organizes conflict metrics into country-year and country-month intervals for longitudinal tracking. It serves as a high-level monitoring tool for civil unrest and political stability.

Use Cases

• Modeling monthly 'demonstration' frequency trends in Cambodia
• Comparing 'political violence' totals across different years
• Assessing the ratio of 'civilian-targeting' events relative to total conflict activity

Strengths

• Weekly update frequency
• Standardized ACLED event categorization
• Longitudinal coverage across years and months

Limitations

• Aggregated format hides sub-national geographic variance
• Requires external registration for granular event-level details
• Small number of categories may mask specific types of local unrest
