DESCRIPTION

The rapid growth of digital technologies has increased the importance of sustainability within the ICT sector. Green ICT refers to a set of principles and practices aimed at reducing the environmental impact of digital systems throughout their lifecycle, from design and development to deployment and end-of-life management.
