<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span class="hps"><span lang="EN-US">Among scholars and practitioners alike issues related to corporate sustainability have become increasingly important due to global warming, environmental degradation, and the
scarcity of (fossil) resources. In making business practices more sustainable, information system (IS) enhanced solutions, typically referred to Green IS, are expected to play an essential role (Watson et al. 2011). The effects of Green IS can be (1) direct,
e.g. due to more efficient usage of IS/IT-resources (2) indirect, e.g., due to more sustainable business processes, or (3) systemic, for instance, causing behavioral changes of employees. While many studies focus on single organizations, to date only little
research has been conducted regarding the adoption, usage, and design of Green IS in inter-organizational networks. Supporting sustainable business practices within and across organizations requires a research agenda that investigates topics such as inter-organizational
sustainability governance, sustainable supply chain management, product life cycle accounting, recycling, carbon management accounting, or energetic and non-energetic resource consumption across value chains. The IS community is thus challenged to contribute
to our understanding of how IS can foster sustainability in complex inter-organizational networks while simultaneously considering economic imperatives. We invite contributions that
</span></span><span lang="EN-US">explore the range of technical, organizational, economic, and social perspectives on Green IS for sustainability in inter-organizational networks from diverse perspectives which include – but are not limited to – the field of
business information systems, management, machine learning, operations research, and computer science as well as contributions from practitioners which provide business experiences.
