Delivering weekly aggregated counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in Nicaragua, produced by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED).

Strengths

• Produced by ACLED, a specialized authority in conflict data collection
• Pre-aggregated by country-year and country-month for immediate longitudinal analysis

Limitations
