Abstract Text	Green ZORA is a project at the University of Zurich that classifies scientific papers published at the University of Zurich into whether they are “about sustainability” or are “not about sustainability”. In this thesis we will go one step further into the project and prototype the additional feature to not only classify the papers into “about sustainability” or “not about sustainability” but into directly one of the 17 SDGs that were set up by the United Nations General Assembly. The goal of this thesis can be summarized as to identify and prototype a machine learning based SDG-classification for scientific papers published on ZORA. In this thesis I will not only present the implementation of the prototype but also its results and the future work that can be done to keep improving it.
