Abstract

This research project has the objective of executing a survey, study and definition of the terms that designate conservation units. Conservation units are objects of relevant tourist interest and, as such, the contemplation and definition in a tourism dictionary is important. The study, organization and definition of the terms used in the tourism area and the identification of equivalent terms in foreign languages of great worldwide projection become important in order to contribute to the communication and exchange of academic information, as well as scientific and professional interest, in a national and international level.
