This dataset provides a comprehensive overview of global CVE initiatives using information obtained from the U.S. State Department’s Annual Reports on Terrorism.

The Story Map:
As you scroll through the story map, you will see a country overview on the left of the screen and the map and corresponding “points” to your right. CVE programs are defined at the city level on the interactive map.
The user is able to click on each point to learn more information about CVE programs within a given city. A pop-up window will display with this information when the point is clicked on. Some cities have more than one program, which is indicated when a right arrow displays in the pop-up window in the upper right-hand corner of the window.
