🔷 About the Dataset 🔷
The Corpus of Resolutions: UN Security Council (CR-UNSC) collects and presents for the first time in human and machine-readable form all resolutions, drafts, and meeting records of the UN Security Council, including detailed metadata, as published by the UN Digital Library and revised by ourselves.
See this blog post introducing the dataset for an overview: https://seanfobbe.com/posts/2024-05-06_new-dataset-corpus-of-resolutions-un-security-council/
