Title Bridging digitalization and sustainability in universities: A Chinese green university initiative in the digital era
Year 2024
Published
Abstract This article endeavors to explore how digital technologies can more effectively facilitate sustainability in green university initiatives. Based on the theoretical review, we proposed a four-dimensional (i.e., green education, green research, green campus, and green life) framework for analyzing the digitalization transformation of green university initiatives. By means of qualitative interviews, we investigated a practical case through which we discovered that a succession of digitalization measures can be adopted to enhance the performance of green university initiatives. This article contributes to the existing literature in the following aspects: (1) proposing an analytical framework to disclose the potential of digitalization in facilitating green university initiatives; (2) providing a case study to illustrate the proposed framework; and (3) uncovering the dynamics beneath the digitalization transformation of green universities. Overall, this article offers a more nuanced understanding of the theory and practice of green university initiatives in the digital era.
