Despite concrete indicators and targets, monitoring the progress of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) remains a challenge, given the many different actors, initiatives, and institutions involved. OSDG, an open-source classification tool aims to help navigate the SDG related ambiguities through a simple and easy to use application. The tool allows to map and connect activities to the SDGs by identifying SDG -relevant content in any text. This paper presents OSDG 2.0, a new iteration of the partnership's work, which marks a significant improvement in the tool's methodology, as well as support for content in 15 languages.
