Togo Conflict Events: Georeferenced and Day-Level Violence Data

Togo is the geographic focus of this dataset, which contains individual events of organized violence. The data is the most disaggregated from the Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP), with events geo-coded to village-level and temporal durations disaggregated to single days. It is sourced from the UCDP Georeferenced Event Dataset, with references to academic publications from 2013 and 2019.

Use Cases

• Model conflict intensity and spread based on georeferenced event locations.
• Analyze temporal patterns of violence based on day-level event dates.
• Conduct sub-national risk assessment based on village-level geographic precision.
• Study the characteristics of organized violence as defined by the UCDP framework.

Strengths

• Data is geo-coded down to the level of individual villages.
• Temporal durations are disaggregated to single, individual days.
• Dataset is described as UCDP's most disaggregated dataset.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
