Abstract(s)
The intersection between sustainability and
project management has received significant attention in
literature. Organizations have come to acknowledge the
importance of incorporating sustainable practices in their
business operations, particularly through their projects.
However, integrating sustainability concerns poses challenges,
that require the development of methods, tools, and techniques
to assess sustainability at the project level. To assist project
managers in this endeavor, a comprehensive literature review
was conducted. The review aims to answer two main questions:
(1) What motivates project managers and their teams to
incorporate sustainability in project management practice? (2)
Which key project management practices and
frameworks/models can be used to ensure sustainability in
projects? The findings of this review provide valuable insights
for project managers seeking to integrate sustainability
practices throughout the entire project management life cycle.
