GeoEPR - Geo-referencing Ethnic Power Relations
The GeoEPR 2018 dataset geo-codes all politically relevant ethnic groups from the EPR-Core 2018 dataset. GeoEPR assignes every politically relevant group one of six settlement patterns and, if possible, provides polygons describing their location on a digital map.
Data
Descriptive (non-spatial) information on ethnic group's settlement patterns from the GeoEPR 2018 dataset is available in research-ready country-year and group-year format from the GROWup Research Front-End data portal.
