Abstract
This study advances the field of Green Information Systems (IS) by conceptualizing the role of institutions (humanly devised rules, norms, and beliefs) in sustainability transitions with IS. We propose a framework for understanding how institutional work can support the maintenance, creation, and disruption of institutions, driving individual user-level transitions toward more sustainable behaviors. In addition, we establish a research agenda to guide future academic inquiry in harnessing the promising lens of institutional work in driving the transformative possibilities of Green IS.
