Paraguay: Political Violence and Demonstration Counts by Month and Year

The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) provides weekly aggregated counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in Paraguay. This dataset organizes conflict metrics into country-year and country-month summaries to track longitudinal trends. Updated as recently as March 2026, it serves as a high-level monitoring tool for regional stability.

Use Cases

• Analyzing the frequency of 'political violence' events across different years
• Correlating 'civilian-targeting' counts with monthly socio-political shifts
• Monitoring 'demonstration' trends to assess civil unrest levels

Strengths

• Categorized by specific event types including civilian-targeting
• Standardized by ACLED methodology

Limitations

• Aggregated format prevents geospatial mapping of specific incidents
• Requires external registration on the ACLED website for granular event-level data
• Unknown total record count
