About Global Conflict Tracker
The Global Conflict Tracker is an interactive map of conflict hotspots published by the Wachenheim Center for Peace and Security at the Council on Foreign Relations. The homepage lists 27 conflicts grouped into five regions: the Americas, Asia, Europe and Eurasia, the Middle East and North Africa, and Sub-Saharan Africa. Users can narrow the view by conflict type, status, and impact on the United States, or search for a specific conflict.
The homepage excerpt names each conflict but does not describe the individual entries in detail, and it does not state how often the tracker is updated.
