Abstract: This paper reviews key issues about project management in the studies and practices for sustainability research in the past. More specific references are given to developing a new framework for assessing green project management (FAGPM), a systemic, participatory, interdisciplinary and flexible framework for sustainability evaluation. The FAGPM operative structure is a six-step cycle. The first three steps are devoted to the characterization of the project management process, the identification of critical attributes of sustainability and the selection of specific indicators for the environmental, social and economic dimensions of sustainability in project management process. In the last three steps, the information obtained by means of the indicators is integrated through mixed (qualitative and quantitative) techniques and multi-criteria analysis, so as to obtain a valued judgment about the project management process and to provide suggestions and insights aimed at improving its environmental performance.
