Global Contentious Politics Dataset (GLOCON)

Global Contentious Politics Dataset (GLOCON) is the first multi-country protest event database for the Global South that uses local sources for automated data collection.

GLOCON records diverse types of events, including but not limited to demonstrations, rallies, strikes, clashes, and political violence. The database features event data for India, Brazil, South Africa, Turkey, and Argentina.

Each event included in the database comes with information on its time, place, participants, and organizers.

GLOCON Dashboard features instant access to the visualized event information geolocated and presented in time series.

You can find more information on GLOCON and the  methodology that guided its preparation on the website.
