Internal Violence Index (IVI)
2020
Methodology
The Internal Violence Index (IVI) assesses socio-political vulnerabilities and violence through internal armed conflicts, homicides, terrorism and political violence. This index is a weighted average of events covering the period 2010-2014. Greater weight is given to the most recent events, thus taking account the persistence effects. Performance scores are distributed from 0 to 100. The lowest score reflects the best situation.
