However, not much researchhas been done on how telecommunications firms in developing countries deal with environmentalrisks. This study aims to explore the specific strategies that these companies use to integratesustainable practices into their daily operations, as well as the challenges and opportunities theyencounter. Through interviews and a review of existing literature on environmental sustainability,this research shows that companies use various methods, such as intangible measures, formalsystems, Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), industry benchmarks, and environment-centric tools,to promote sustainability.
