Global Terrorism Index

The Global Terrorism Index (GTI) is a report that looks at terrorism around the world and tries to measure how much it is happening and how bad it is. The GTI looks at things like the number of people killed in terrorist attacks, how much money was spent on these attacks, the number of groups that were involved in planning or carrying out the attacks, and how countries responded to them. The GTI then creates a score that tells us how serious the terrorist threat is in different countries. The higher the score, the more serious the terrorist threat is in that country.
