Sustainability Adoption in Project Management Practices within a Social Enterprise Case

The paper presents the preliminary findings on the use of sustainable project management practices within social enterprise projects. The research gaps within this field have proposed the authors to address the challenges rising from lack of sustainable infrastructures in social-based projects both within for-profit and non-profit organisations.
Secondary research consists of conducting a literature review clarifying the existing knowledge of the research topic within the body of literature. The lack of sustainable behaviour and its adoption within organisations is also highlighted. The limitation of the research is the importance of integration of sustainable development (SD) within social projects. Such projects were identified as the drivers towards educating the society towards future generations’ sustainability awareness. The novelty of the research is to develop an early understanding regarding linkages between sustainable practices and project management programmes within the social projects. The study results would be beneficial to the researchers and practitioners exploring within the same field.
