Primary research areas

Di­git­al sustain­ability
The fo­cus on the so­cio-tech­nic­al per­spect­ives of the green agenda in­vest­ig­ates how di­git­al ap­plic­a­tions, tools and data can con­trib­ute to sustain­ability ini­ti­at­ives in or­gan­iz­a­tions and among in­di­vidu­als. Part of the di­git­al sustain­ability re­search is a fo­cus on tech­no­lo­gies which can do en­vir­on­ment­al harm.
Di­git­al hangovers
The “di­git­al hangovers” theme fo­cuses on a crit­ic­al ex­am­in­a­tion of im­pacts of di­git­al­iz­a­tion and in­form­a­tion tech­no­logy in or­gan­iz­a­tion­al and so­ci­et­al con­texts. It in­vites a nu­anced re­flec­tion of the di­git­al­iz­a­tion of everything in the private and pub­lic sphere.

Di­git­al sustain­ability

My approach to the study of digital sustainability focuses on how the use and governance of digital technologies lead to environmental impacts. Through empirical studies of digitalization and sustainability my aim is to highlight the potential for sustainable practices from the use of Information Systems. Ultimately, promoting long-term societal well-being and the cultivation of awareness and leadership for sustainable tech use.
