The Observatory

The Far-Right Protest Observatory (FARPO) produces and houses data on protests organized by far-right groups in European countries in the last twenty years. This data includes the location, date, initiator, and motive behind each protest.

Designed for students, researchers, decisionmakers, civil society organizations and journalists, this comprehensive resource helps tracking and comparing far-right protest in contemporary democracies, rigorously and consistently.

FARPO is based on data collection in the following projects
