Summary/Abstract: The Sustainable Built Environment, as a corollary to Sustainable Development, is an EU policy priority whose implementation is legally stipulated for all EU countries. As for the Romanian-specific terminology employed by decision-makers, there are critical inconsistencies pertaining to mistranslations or fluctuating translations of standardized English terms. This article outlines the purpose and objectives of the envisaged project, highlights its interdisciplinarity, and displays the steps to be taken in developing a terminological tool that is meant to be of use to linguists, scientists, and field specialists alike.
