“…The challenge is to compensate or reduce the negative impacts of management on the environment and society and to lead to a transformation of the decision-making models, the social relations and the interactions induced by these ICT. This tendency is considered by researchers as a component of the company's environmental and societal identity [27], which has allowed us to question vertical models of management and hierarchical subordination [1]. At the heart of these new modes of managerial thinking, the adoption of practices respectful of the environment and in harmony with societal concerns becomes the preferred way for researchers to design a responsible management of ICT.…”

“…The use of responsible management practices that respects SD issues often refers to the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) approach and the Green IT concept [1]. In this view, we have introduced the initial model of the eco-strategy which proposes an original Framework composed of three dimensions [1]: the Green IT and CSR approach, governance and strategic alignment.…”

“…We will introduce two new concepts, namely "ICT Green Alignment" and "ICT Green Governance" in the ICT management strategy; the first concept proposes a model of ICT alignment based on the CSR strategy and Green IT, while the second concept offers a new approach to governance that will be redesigned according to the Green IT and CSR vision: The rest of this article is organized as follows. This paper first presents the state of research through a state of the art organized around an initial Framework of eco-strategy [1], in which we will recall the theoretical foundations of adoption of CSR and Green IT practices in the ICT governance and alignment process. Then we expose in a second place the enhanced model of the eco-strategy through the development of the different dimensions of the model.…”

“…In this view, we have introduced the initial model of the eco-strategy which proposes an original Framework composed of three dimensions [1]: the Green IT and CSR approach, governance and strategic alignment. As the dimension of Green IT and CSR is considered to be an orientation and homogeneous axis, given the cause-effect relationship between the adoption of Green IT practices and the CSR approach, this dimension has been declined on the other two axes which are the governance and alignment of ICTs in order to establish a systemic perspective to improve the integration of SD issues into the ICT management processes within the company.…”

“…conventional management mode. In order to evolve existing ICT management approaches towards more sustainability and to present approaches based on the Triple Bottom Line (TBL) model that was represented in 1997 by John Elkington [1,2]. The aim is to integrate the concept of sustainability into the management strategy and to take account in a proportionate way of economic, social and ecological interests, thus guaranteeing a balance in order to reach all stakeholders in a sustainable and lasting way [1].…”

Increasing attention to SD in the field of ICT encourages researchers to integrate the concept of sustainability into the design of management models to help companies cope with the environmental and social constraints of stakeholders and to gain competitive advantage. In recent years, several initiatives have been undertaken to analyze the impacts of ICT on the environment and society. However, the contexts are more complex and dynamic than many authors have thus specified the need to establish a systemic perspective for the integration of the concepts of SD in all the processes of management and decision-making in the ICT strategy [3], to strengthen the relationship between research and development and the exploitation of management models. To increase the implementation of this integration, some literature clarifies that aspects of sustainability should be included at all levels of the overall strategy [4]. Therefore the SD strategy in ICT management cannot be considered as an independent issue. But given the increasing number of approaches to implementing existing SD recommendations and tools, the development of appropriate new models is becoming increasingly complex [5]. The evolution of the challenges and opportunities for managing ICT, leads us to pilot a reflection on the strategic approach in a more global way and to highlight the fundamental questioning of the

Awareness of stakeholder interactions and sustainable development (SD) issues in the management of information and communication technologies (ICT), forces companies to adopt the concepts of Green IT and corporate social responsibility (CSR) to meet the challenges of agility and innovation, also to create differentiation in governance processes and strategic alignment of ICT. In this paper, we present the enhanced model of eco-strategy as a new generation model for ICT management, which will serve as a theoretical basis and aims to improve research in the field of responsible management of ICT. The updated eco-strategy model is composed of two dimensions: "ICT Green Governance" and "ICT Green Alignment". These dimensions were designed according to a Green IT and CSR approach to provide companies with tools for the development of coherent and sustainable managerial strategies capable of boosting overall performance and to explore new levers of transition towards renewed management modes in service the SD.

Os produtos eletrônicos descartados incorretamente podem causar muitos danos ambientais e, consequentemente, à saúde humana. Nesse contexto, foi realizada uma revisão teórica das leis e normas brasileiras sobre resíduos sólidos eletrônicos, empresas que atuam na área e a avaliação do descarte de resíduos eletrônicos na cidade de Santa Cruz do Sul, RS, além da potencial revalorização de computadores descartados localmente. Verificamos que existem soluções para a disposição de resíduos eletrônicos de pessoas físicas e jurídicas, principalmente empresas de informática da cidade, destacando que para as primeiras existe um local adequado na cidade denominado CEPREL (Centro de Coleta de Pneus e Lixo Eletrônico), mantido pela Prefeitura Municipal. As empresas têm seus próprios processos. Consideramos como benefício social que uma das melhores soluções municipais é o BTEC (Banco Social de Tecnologia do Vale do Rio Pardo), que coleta computadores desativados de empresas, os repara e doa a escolas e entidades beneficentes.
