Research on Project, Programme and Portfolio Management

This book collects recent work presented at the 31st IPMA Congress, which was held in Merida, Mexico, from September 30th to October 2nd, 2019. It covers a range of project, programme and portfolio management contexts, with the general aim of integrating sustainability into project management.
The book is divided into five parts. Part I discusses general approaches to sustainability in project management, including regional approaches and factors affecting the early stages of a project. Parts II, III and IV all present sustainable project management in a different context, including education and welfare, clean energy, and smart cities. Part V concludes the book by looking at perspectives and future directions for sustainable project management to take. The book offers a valuable resource for all researchers interested in the emerging research trends in incorporating sustainability in project, programme and portfolio management.
