Introduction. ICNEO – International Council of Neologistics – is a permanent body of UNICIN aiming at promoting the denominative and conceptual terminological standardization for the Science of Conscientiology. In carrying out its linguistic-terminological political functions, ICNEO compiles, organizes, standardizes, plans, harmonizes and disseminates the international terminology of Conscientiology. It acts as a technical evaluator and fosters an open, democratic and cosmoethical debate within CCCI, with a view to a broader linguistic-terminological consensus.
International. This work is developed in the Portuguese language by volunteers living in Brazil, and in the English, Spanish, Italian and German languages by volunteers living abroad.
