| ### Dataset Summary |
|
|
| The Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) is a milestone document in the history of human rights. Drafted by |
| representatives with different legal and cultural backgrounds from all regions of the world, it set out, for the |
| first time, fundamental human rights to be universally protected. The Declaration was adopted by the UN General |
| Assembly in Paris on 10 December 1948 during its 183rd plenary meeting. |

|
|
| ### Supported Tasks and Leaderboards |
|
|
| [More Information Needed] |
|
|
| ### Languages |
|
|
| The dataset includes translations of the document in over 400 languages and dialects. The list of languages can be found |
| [here](https://unicode.org/udhr/translations.html). |
|
|
| ## Dataset Structure |
|
|
| ### Data Instances |
|
|
| Each instance corresponds to a different language and includes information about the language and the full document |
| text. |
|
|
| ### Data Fields |
|
|
| - `text`: The full document text with each line of text delimited by a newline (`\n`). |
| - `lang_key`: The unique identifier of a given translation. |
| - `lang_name`: The textual description of language/dialect. |
| - `iso639-3`: The [iso639-3](https://iso639-3.sil.org/) language identifier. |
| - `iso15924`: The [iso15924](https://unicode.org/iso15924/iso15924-codes.html) language identifier. |
| - `bcp47`: The [BCP 47](https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/bcp47) language identifier. |
|
|
| ### Data Splits |
|
|
| Only a `train` split included which includes the full document in all languages. |

|
| ## Dataset Creation |
|
|
| ### Curation Rationale |
|
|
| In addition to its social significance, the document set a world record in 1999 for being the most translated |
| document in the world and as such can be useful for settings requiring paired text between many languages. |

| ## Considerations for Using the Data |
|
|
| ### Social Impact of Dataset |
|
|
| In addition to the social and political significance of the United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights, |
| the document set a world record in 1999 for being the most translated document in the world and as such can be useful |
| for settings requiring paired text between many languages including those that are low resource and significantly |
| underrepresented in NLP research. |
|
|
| ### Discussion of Biases |
|
|
| [More Information Needed] |
|
|
| ### Other Known Limitations |
|
|
| Although the document is translated into a very large number of languages, the text is very short and therefore may |
| have limited usefulness for most types of modeling and evaluation. |
|
|
