Global Peace Index (GPI) measures the relative position of nations' and regions' peacefulness using over 20 qualitative and quantitative indicators. Currently, it includes the ranking of 163 countries covering 99.7 per cent of the world’s population.
The report itself is produced by the Institute for Economics and Peace (IEP) and developed in consultation with an international panel of peace experts from peace institutes and think tanks with data collected and collated by the Economist Intelligence Unit. To find out more, you can download the latest Global Peace Index Report from 2019 or watch its official launch.
The following visualization attempts to demonstrate changes that took place in the Global Peace Gap - in this case the difference in peacefulness between countries belonging to the Low income group and those in the High income group -, around the globe between 2008 and 2019.
