Abstract Sustainability issues are becoming one of the most important project categories in distinct business sectors, levels of public administration and countries. This theoretical essay, still under initial development, proposes a new typology based in two dimensions that affect sustainability and project management. The first dimension is the "by the project" and "of the project" division. The sustainability "by" refers to how sustainability is directly included in the project scope, so projects that will deliver sustainable results. In the other hand, sustainability "of" the project mean that all project management processes will follow sustainability procedures. The second dimension is the dichotomy between PBO (Project based organizations) and PSO (Project supported organizations). For the PBO, the projects are the core business of that kind of organizations, so the earnings and profits are direct consequences of successful project execution and new contracts. Whereas for the PSO, projects are related to future operations, products, and services, so they are investments or expenses. As contribution, a research agenda is proposed addressing the relevant aspects, both in theoretical and practitioners' visions for sustainability project management. So this essay is a contribution in the sustainable project management studies.
