ACLED works with a unique network of international and local partners around the world. This page provides more information on local data collection partners. Click here to learn more about our strategic partners.
Local Data Collection Partnerships
Through partnerships with local organizations and conflict observatories, ACLED is able to collect information in hard-to-access contexts and integrate thematic, regional, and country-level expertise into our data collection program. Partners benefit from ACLED training in data management, visualization, and/or analysis — building local monitoring capacity and enhancing ACLED’s global crisis mapping network.
Prior to entering into a partnership, especially those where data collected by local partners is to be incorporated into the ACLED dataset, ACLED assesses the information gathering practices and methodology of potential partners according to set criteria. Please note that for security reasons some partners remain anonymous and appear as ‘undisclosed source’ in the ACLED dataset.
Partner contributions are invaluable to ensuring ACLED is able to produce the highest quality real-time data on political violence and protest around the world.
If you are an organization collecting information on political violence and protest activity and are interested in partnering with ACLED, please reach out to us at [email protected].
