Open-source Data Analysis Tools

CMU created a set of open-source data analysis tools related to the Sustainable Development Goals. This R package offers publicly available SDG keyword datasets, the official United Nations SDG color scheme and SDG descriptions, and several functions related to the mapping of text to particular sets of keywords. We encourage you to use these tools for your own education and research endeavors. We also welcome your suggestions for refinement.
