New Caledonia Conflict Events: Weekly Aggregated Political Violence Counts

The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) provides weekly aggregated counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in New Caledonia. The data is structured into country-year and country-month summaries, with the most recent update occurring in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Tracking monthly fluctuations in demonstration events to identify periods of civil unrest
• Analyzing annual trends in civilian-targeting incidents for regional risk assessment
• Correlating political violence counts with specific years to study long-term conflict patterns

Strengths

• Data provided by ACLED, a specialized conflict monitoring organization
• Weekly update cycle ensures current monitoring
• Distinguishes between political violence, civilian targeting, and demonstrations

Limitations

• Aggregated format prevents granular spatial analysis
• Full event-level data requires external registration and API access
• Geographic scope is restricted to a single territory
