Abstract :
The rapid advancement of digital technologies
has revolutionized the way governments and
organizations approach environmental resource
management. This paper examines the role of e-
governance in harnessing the power of digital
technologies to foster sustainable futures. The study
explores how the adoption of technologies such as
artificial intelligence, big data analytics, and the Internet
of Things can transform the delivery of environmental
services, optimize organizational processes, and create
new value for citizens and stakeholders. Drawing on a
systematic review of the literature, the paper presents a
conceptual framework that outlines the key factors
influencing the successful implementation of e-
governance initiatives in environmental resource
management. The findings suggest that effective e-
governance can help mitigate the negative effects of
human activity on the environment, improve waste
management and pollution control, and promote the
sustainable use of natural resources. However, the paper
also underscores the challenges and potential risks
associated with the digital transformation of
environmental governance, highlighting the need for
robust governance frameworks, data security measures,
and public-private collaboration. The study concludes by
outlining a research agenda to further explore the
intersection of e-governance, digital technologies, and
environmental sustainability.
