Sustainable Development Goals now on Scopus Author Profiles

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are specific research areas aimed at solving real-world problems. They are part of a plan to end poverty, protect the planet, and improve the lives and prospects of all people around the world by 2030.

SDGs have been available on Scopus Document Details pages since 2021, and they were recently introduced on Scopus Organization Profiles.

Here are more details about how Elsevier classifies SDGs in Scopus:

For each SDG, Scopus maps goals to a document by matching terms from a Scopus record against search queries and using a predictive machine learning element.
The inputs are Title, Abstract, Author-Keywords, Indexed-Terms, and Subject-Areas.
The input language is limited to text in English.
