# UN-RES: A Collection of Resolutions of United Nations for Religion and Spirituality in Health and Education

Dataset proposed in paper *SpiritRAG: A Q&A ystem for Religion and Spirituality in the United Nations Archive*.

## πŸ”½ Full Dataset Download (~10 GB)

πŸ“š ~~We are working on getting permissions from UN to rediscribute the dataset. If granted, you can download the full dataset later at [Zenodo](https://zenodo.org/records/15746545).~~

©️ ~~UN-RES is under **CC-BY-NC-ND 4.0 license**. Redistribution of original UN documents is governed by the [United Nations Terms of Use](https://www.un.org/en/about-us/terms-of-use). This dataset is provided for academic research only. No commercial use or redistribution of the original documents is permitted.~~

πŸ“… [Update July 3rd 2025]

❌ Unfortunately, the UN did not approve the re-distribution of the resolution documents :( We therefore have to remove the dataset from Zenodo.

πŸ› οΈ However, you can still use our crawler script if you want to get the dataset yourself!

## πŸ“¦ Sample Subset on Hugging Face
This repository includes a representative sample (~10 examples for *health* and *education* each in the `sample` folder) for quick inspection.

## πŸ—‚οΈ Dataset Structure

- Unzip UN-RES.zip: `unzip UN-RES.zip`

- Switch to the folder: `cd ./UN-RES`

- Each data instance is stored in a folder with a document ID. See below the datastructure:

<pre>
