Abstract

Integrating sustainability into major or even smaller projects and the business operations of organizations is increasingly de rigueur. However, delivering sustainability in process, product and benefits raises differing challenges dependent on context, extent of alignment with pre-existing strategic objectives and definition. Multiple frameworks to review sustainability within projects also exist. This study utilizes a hybrid framework to review the delivery of sustainability in practice within the early stages of a motorsports tourism project in Africa and concludes with some recommendations for project management practice and further research.
