Abstract

Introduction: Digital transformation allows new ways of maximizing environmental management, although its functionality will depend on the use given to the information generated and its monitoring for decision-making. Objective: To explore the relationship between the adoption of digital technology, the effectiveness of environmental monitoring, and the sustainable management of natural resources in Decentralized Autonomous Governments. Methodology: Quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional and correlational-explanatory study applied to 172 officials, technicians and professionals. An 18-item Likert-type questionnaire at the five-point level was used. Results: Significant relationships were found between technology adoption and environmental monitoring (r = 0.68), technology adoption and sustainable management (r = 0.61), environmental monitoring and sustainable management (r = 0.74). The model explains 59% of the variability. Conclusions: Environmental monitoring had greater predictive weight than the adoption of technology, which shows that sustainability lies in the use of the information generated.
