Abstract
Information and Communication Technologies in the context of social organizations, enhance the definition of strategies to optimize the use of Information Systems in order to provide better support services to their users. The paper presents a real case of optimizing the current information system of a social organization in which it proposes to develop an integrative and multidisciplinary prototype incorporating sustainability concerns in the context of sustainable development objectives to improve cooperation between the Institution and its users. The methodology adopted was based on the literature review of the thematic and the case study. The main results point to the added value that a multidisciplinary and aggregator prototype can constitute in order to incorporate sustainability concerns in the technical, environmental, social, economic and individual fields.
