The ACLED (Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project) advances social justice by tracking and sharing data on violence, protests, and conflicts worldwide. By making this information freely available, ACLED helps marginalized communities, activists, and researchers hold powerful groups accountable and bring global attention to local injustices.
Through its regional focus, ACLED highlights the struggles of vulnerable groups like ethnic minorities, women, and activists, helping advocates address their specific needs. By documenting and publicizing these issues, ACLED empowers communities facing violence to speak out and seek justice, strengthening civil society’s ability to drive positive change in conflict areas.
