PEACE & CONFLICT DATA

Dimensions of Peacebuilding Dataset

Effective Peacebuilding Institute

The Dimensions of Peacebuilding Dataset is a comprehensive and integrated resource for analyzing the dynamics of intrastate and internationalized intrastate conflicts and the peace interventions implemented to address them.

It aims to fill a critical gap in the field of peacebuilding by consolidating diverse data sources into a single, accessible platform, enabling practitioners, policymakers, researchers, and funders to make informed decisions based on systematic evidence.

Uppsala Conflict Data Program

Uppsala University

The Uppsala Conflict Data Program (UCDP) is a trusted source for data on organized violence and one of the main providers of this data globally.

The program has developed the standard global definition for armed conflict, shaping how conflicts are systematically defined and studied.

Eirene Peacebuilding Database

Alliance for Peacebuilding

The Eirene Peacebuilding Database is a robust curation of key indicators used in peacebuilding across seven focus areas:

  • Dispute Resolution
  • Governance
  • Perceptions of Safety & Security
  • Resilience
  • Trust
  • Social Cohesion
  • Violence Reduction

These indicators can be used to improve peace program designs and develop measurement and evaluation frameworks to more accurately assess peace.

Better Evidence Project

George Mason University

The Better Evidence Project connects practitioners, donors, and policymakers to evidence to strengthen their efforts to end wars, prevent armed conflicts, and build sustainable peace.

Their resource center compiles reports, policy briefs, project evaluations, case studies, and papers from around the world on peacekeeping, peacemaking, and peacebuilding to aid decision-making.
