Classified Subject Guide and Index

The subject index groups together international organizations which have similar concerns.

The subject index is based on words taken directly from the titles and profiles of international organizations.(*) The words are classified into subject categories and sub-categories. It is possible to search the index using individual words, subject categories, and sub-categories.

There are 100 subject categories. They are structured into a matrix of ten rows by ten columns, resulting in 100 cells. Each of these 100 cells represents a subject category and is titled accordingly. For example, cell "06" (row 0, column 6) is titled "Hydrology", while cell "60" (row 6, column 0) is titled "Development".

Each cell is futher divided into at most ten sub-cells. For example, the "Hydrology" cell is divided into three: "Hydrology", "Rivers and Lakes", and "Water". The "Development" cell is divided into nine: "Aid", "Assistance", "Development", "Empowerment", "Help", "Potential", "Progress", "Reform", and "Sustainable Development".

Each sub-cell covers an infinite number of words in a multiplicity of languages. These are the words taken directly from the titles and profiles of international organizations. For example, the sub-cell "Rivers and Lakes" covers, at the moment, 50 words, including: "inland waters", "pond", "tributaries", "fleuves", "ozera" and "ríos". The sub-cell "Sustainable Development" covers, at the moment, 39 words, including: "renewable", "sustainability", "unsustainably", "soutenable", "sostenibilidad", and "nachhaltige".

You can search the subject index by an individual word by typing the word into the search box. Your results will be all the organizations containing(*) a word classified under the same (sub-)category as the word you requested. For example, if you search for "tributaries", your results will be all the organizations containing(*) one or more of the words classified under "Rivers and Lakes". If you search for "sostenibilidad", your results will be all the organizations containing(*) one or more of the words classified under "Sustainable Development".

You can search the index by subject category or by sub-category. We recommend you start such a search by clicking a cell in the matrix. Your results will be all the organizations containing(*) a word classified under the (sub-)category you have selected. For example, if you select the category "Development", your results will be all the organizations containing(*) one or more of the words classified under the category "Development" and its sub-categories. If you select the sub-category "Sustainable Development", your results will be all the organizations containing(*) one or more of the words classified under the sub-category "Sustainable Development".


(*) The words used for the subject index are the words in the titles of organizations (in all languages), and selected keywords marked in the paragraph "Aims".
