> The objective of this special issue is to discuss current developments 
> in the field of ICTs and Sustainable Development (SD) by providing a 
> forum for both academic researchers and practitioners interested in 
> broadening and deepening the understanding of the sustainability concept.
> In the discourse on sustainability there has been a shift from a focus 
> on ecological issues towards the inclusion of broader societal issues. 
> The so called ´Agenda 21´ (1992) in the Rio ´Earth Summit´ stated four 
> mutually independent dimensions of sustainability: ecological, 
> economic, social, and cultural. Such a perspective becomes especially 
> important if one wants to formulate indicators for sustainability. How 
> did so far, can in principle, and could in future, a more 
> comprehensive approach like this influence the understanding of how 
> ICTs can help foster SD?
> Authors are invited to submit original, unpublished work, not under 
> consideration for publication elsewhere, with a theory, research or 
> practice focus on the relationship of ICTs and SD.
> Authors may submit articles up to 7,000 words in length by sending an 
> electronic version preferably in Word to the following address only:
