=== TRACK DESCRIPTION ===

Full version: http://ecis2018.eu/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/ECIS2018_Track29_Sustainably-digital.pdf 

The aim of this theme track is to advance the ongoing, yet emergent, discussion on the role and relevance of information systems in the context of sustainability. It intends to provide thought leaders with a forum that accounts for the breadth of sustainability research in the information systems discipline in terms of environmental, economic, and social sustainability. Potential topics range from the design of systems and digital services for sustainability to the application of existing theories on change at the individual, group, organizational, and societal levels, as well as the development of new theory. We particularly look for rigorous research that shows that IS can have a "real impact" on the pressing issues of sustainability. 

The track's topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- Green IS and Green IT in organisations
- Sustainable IS-based Business Models (e.g., smart mobility, sharing economy)
- Ecological, social, and economic impacts of information technology
- IS-based Social Entrepreneurship
- IS enabled sustainability education and training
- Crowdsourcing and environmental collaboration
- Convergence between Green IS theory and practice

We are looking forward to seeing you in Portsmouth 2018!

Johann, Nui, Helena
