Georgia among countries with “no impact of terrorism” - Global Terrorism Index 2024

The Institute for Economics and Peace published the Global Terrorism Index 2024, which ranked Georgia among the countries with “no impact of terrorism”.

Georgia ranked 89th along with several countries with no impact of terrorism. Georgia also has a high rank among the European and Black Sea countries.

The Institute for Economics and Peace also reported that Georgia’s ranking had improved by 48 points since 2012. In 2012, Georgia ranked 41st globally and 7th among the countries of Europe and the Black Sea region.

The Global Terrorism Index [GTI] is a comprehensive study analysing the impact of terrorism for 163 countries covering 99.7% of the world’s population

The GTI report is produced by the Institute for Economics & Peace (IEP) using data from Terrorism Tracker and other sources. The GTI produces a composite score so as to provide an ordinal ranking of countries on the impact of terrorism. The GTI scores each country on a scale from 0 to 10; where 0 represents no impact from terrorism and 10 represents the highest measurable impact of terrorism.

Given the significant resources committed to counter-terrorism by governments across the world, it is important to analyse and aggregate the available data to better understand its various properties. One of the key aims of the GTI is to examine these trends. It also aims to help inform a positive, practical debate about the future of terrorism and the required policy responses.
