Global Terrorism Index 2023: India ranked 13th

The Global Terrorism Index (GTI) is an annual report published by the Institute for Economics and Peace that provides a comprehensive analysis of global terrorism trends and patterns. The index ranks countries based on their terrorism levels, taking into account factors such as the number of terrorist incidents, deaths, and injuries, as well as the economic impact of terrorism.

The GTI is a valuable resource for policymakers, researchers, and the general public in understanding the evolving threat of terrorism and its impact on global peace and security. In this post, we will look at the latest findings of the GTI, which is now in its tenth edition, as well as the countries most affected by terrorism and the factors that contribute to the rise and fall of terrorist activity.

What Is the Global Terrorism Index(GTI)

The Institute for Economics and Peace publishes the Global Terrorism Index each year. Because even the definition of terrorism is debatable, it is critical to emphasize that the methodologies used to measure terrorism are also debatable. The Global Terrorism Index ranks 163 countries based on four indicators that are weighted over a five-year period. These four factors are the number of terrorist incidents per year, the number of terrorist fatalities per year, the number of terrorist injuries per year, and the total property damage caused by terrorism per year.

The region recorded 1,354 terrorism deaths in 2022, a 30% decrease from the previous year; however, if the improvement in Afghanistan was excluded, terrorism deaths would have increased by 71%.
