Bibliografisk information

This paper is a part of the research project Implications and Reporting of Virtual Meetings.
The Swedish Government has mandated 18 public authorities to increase their use of virtual meetings (VMs) in order to reduce the environmental impact of work-related travel. Public authorities are obliged to report on the extent they apply VMs in their work routines and on the related VM effects to the Swedish EPA. This research project aims to develop a framework to evaluate and monitor the effects of VMs on the organisation, individual employees and society as a whole. These effects include impacts on travel, energy and environmental parameters, as well as economic, social and time use implications. The goal of the project is to develop a framework and to propose a credible and applicable routine for the reporting of VMs by public authorities, as well as develop methods for monitoring and impact analysis of the increased VM use.
