Reunion: Weekly Aggregated Political Violence and Demonstration Events

The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED) provides weekly aggregated counts of political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstration events in Reunion. The data is structured into country-year and country-month summaries to facilitate longitudinal analysis of conflict trends.

Use Cases

• Analyzing temporal trends in political violence using country-month event counts
• Comparing annual demonstration frequency in Reunion via country-year summaries
• Monitoring civilian-targeting event volumes for humanitarian risk assessment

Strengths

• Weekly update frequency
• Categorizes events into three distinct types: political violence, civilian-targeting, and demonstrations
• Standardized ACLED methodology for conflict event classification

Limitations

• Aggregated format lacks specific incident coordinates or exact dates
• Requires external registration for access to granular event-level data
