With the recent advances in natural language processing (NLP), a vast number
of applications have emerged across various use cases. Among the plethora of
NLP applications, many academic researchers are motivated to do work that has a
positive social impact, in line with the recent initiatives of NLP for Social
Good (NLP4SG). However, it is not always obvious to researchers how their
research efforts are tackling today's big social problems. Thus, in this paper,
we introduce NLP4SGPAPERS, a scientific dataset with three associated tasks
that can help identify NLP4SG papers and characterize the NLP4SG landscape by:
(1) identifying the papers that address a social problem, (2) mapping them to
the corresponding UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and (3) identifying
the task they are solving and the methods they are using. Using
state-of-the-art NLP models, we address each of these tasks and use them on the
entire ACL Anthology, resulting in a visualization workspace that gives
researchers a comprehensive overview of the field of NLP4SG. Our website is
