The YCM combines data-driven analysis with robust qualitative assessments of political violence and disorder to enable greater awareness of how the security situation is evolving. Yemen remains one of the world’s [most complex and severe conflict environments](https://acleddata.com/series/acled-conflict-index), making timely and reliable information on violence patterns, drivers, and agents an imperative to inform realistic dialogue and negotiation at all levels, allow for conflict-sensitive and effective program design, and bolster accountability. **YCM outputs** The YCM includes an interactive map of Yemen, updated weekly, displaying incidents and fatalities over a set period of time, with a number of filters so that users can focus on areas of interest.
