MIROW Common Vocabulary

MIROW common vocabulary has been developed by consolidating terms found in each MIROW guide and then applying a concise definition to each term. The common vocabulary will ultimately be a comprehensive, one-stop shop for all of the terminology in MIROW guides. Additionally, the common vocabulary will grow as new subject areas are addressed by MIROW.
