Idag står återbruk i fokus och desto fler försöker inkorporera det i sina projekt. Problemet är att många inte vet hur och att en rädsla verkar finnas. På grund av att det inte finns processer för hur arbete med återbruk bör utföras, väljs ofta den traditionella vägen med jungfruliga material. Om återbrukat material ska bli det som används i första hand måste riskerna minimeras, både för byggherra
Åre municipality, a well-known skiing resort in Sweden, has been classified as a primary risk area for landslides, due to a combination of global warming and increased pressure from expansion. The purpose of this study is to explore options to strengthen climate adaptation planning and reduce vulnerability in Åre. This thesis is a qualitative single-case study with results relevant for sensitive m
In light of the Danish society becoming more and more secular, we wish to examine in this study, how a group of young Christians in a free church in Copenhagen, Denmark are experiencing stigmatization based on their religious belief, as well as how they choose to handle it. Furthermore, this study shows how young Christians develop their identity based on said stigmatization and the meeting with t
Under de senaste två åren har världen genomgått en viruspandemi, s.k. covid-19-pandemin, som till olika grader förändrat individers vardagliga liv. I Sverige har pandemin inneburit förändringar i bl.a. socialt umgänge, undervisning, arbetsformer och nattlivsaktiviteter. Avsikten med studien har varit att studera hur narkotika- och våldsbrottsligheten förändrats till följd av pandemin, samt att uti
A fundamental part of modern medicine is the ability to study and analyze images, especially for diagnostic purposes. A relatively new imaging system is photoacoustics, where laser- and ultrasound technology are combined to create images in a non-invasive way. It is absorption of the laser that is responsible for the creation of the ultrasound signal. Thus, it is the optic properties of tissue tha
Bioenergy derived from agricultural biomass has potential to phase out fossil energy sources while strengthening the bioeconomy. To estimate the agricultural sector's potential to meet the rising demand for renewable energy sources, it is crucial to understand what motivate farmers to sustainably increasing agricultural feedstock production. Through eight semi-structured interviews, and online
This master thesis focuses on the creation of an algorithm to perform multispectral imaging of a metallic target using X-rays. The generation of an ultrashort high-power low-divergent X-ray beam is performed by means of a Ti:Sapphire laser driven wake-field plasma accelerator. The X-rays result from synchrotron radiation, and are therefore broadband. The spectrum will be characterized, along with

Research links motivation to well-being and personality. There have also been studies regarding the connection between personality and health. In one scientific study, certain personality traits and greater motivation predicted high levels of well-being, but greater motivation also predicted lower well-being when the individual had a high tendency to worry and pessimism. In order to help organisat
Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur HBTQ+ har utvecklats de senaste 20 åren, både ur ett individperspektiv och ur ett samhällsperspektiv. I studien har det ingått fem stycken personer som har blivit intervjuade genom semistrukturerade intervjuer. Dessa individer har fått berätta sina egna erfarenheter om hur det är att leva som HBTQ+ individ i vårt samhälle idag, samt berätta vilka skillnader
As the 2022 invasions of Ukraine occurred, many tweets suggested that it was a prominent opportunity to invest and claimed that historically it has been profitable to invest during invasions. The encouraged placement of the investment was in the country committing the invasion and that is the starting point for this paper. Which is, furthermore, expanded to also investigate the performance of a gl
Bakgrund: Suicid hos äldre är ett globalt problem som kan beror på flera olika faktorer. Depression är en av de vanligaste. Suicidrisk hos äldre kan yttra sig på olika sätt. Vårdpersonal kan ha avgörande betydelse i att upptäcka och förebygga suicid. Det finns flera hinder för vårdpersonal att identifiera suicidrisken. Syfte: Att beskriva vårdpersonalens erfarenhet av suicidrisk hos äldre. Metod:
When it comes to obtaining funding for their venture, female entrepreneurs are at a disadvantage. Whilst obtaining funding for a venture is already a difficult task for male founders (Steigertahl & Mauer, 2018) only 2.3% of funding in venture capital goes toward female entrepreneurs (Bittner and Lau, 2021). This funding gap between male and female entrepreneurs is noticeable in different aspec
Den här uppsatsen undersöker förhållandet mellan internationella finansiella institutioner, mänskliga rättigheter och miljö. I kampen mot klimatförändringar har hållbar finansiering lyfts fram som en åtgärd för att stödja skiftet till en hållbar ekonomi. Internationella finansiella institutioner är centrala aktörer i omväxlingen mot en hållbar ekonomi och utgör de främsta tillhandahållarna av offeThis thesis examines the relationship between international finance and environmental rights, and how the concept of sustainable finance has emerged as a response to climate change and the rapid transition towards a sustainable economy. Multilateral development banks (MDBs) are a key player in the transition to a green economy, contributing to 68% of global climate finance. Thus, MBDs are the majo
The demand for integrating Corporate Social Responsibility into business has increased during recent decades. Despite the dramatic growth of demand for CSR, some researchers still criticize that it is a waste of money. However, other researchers see CSR as an opportunity and advantage to become more profitable and create a better reputation, etc. In this work, the researcher explores the driving f
Abstract: The main purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between inequality and growth through the lens of women’s financial inclusion in Sub-Sharan Africa for the period 2004-2020. Using a log-log fixed effects model on Panel data, the relationship between women’s financial inclusion, measured by female borrowers per 1000, and economic growth was examined. The results show that bot
In many post-industrial cities, the relationship between water and the city has changed over the years. Our needs are different now, and because of that, the character and usage of these locations have changed with time. From areas with production power and industrial growth, to sources of social hubs, leisure, and outdoor activities. All of these cities have the same challenge in common, to becom
Objectives: Wildlife in Kenya, much like globally, is under significant pressure. In Kenya alone, there has been a 60 percent decrease in species and the remaining wildlife is faced with habitat loss and climate change, among others. The study of conservation practices - responding to the many challenges underlying the “sixth mass extinction” - has never been more relevant. All the more so is the

The analysis is done in terms of packaging. Therefore, oat milk packaging and all the packaging elements were analyzed. After a literature review of Consumer Perception, Consumer Motivation, Consume
Entrepreneurs have certain personality traits that are evaluated by venture capitalists (VCs) when making their investment decision, which have been studied in literature. However, personality traits in ecopreneurs, or sustainable entrepreneurs, that may impact the investment decision of a sustainable venture capitalist (SVC) are not known to have been studied, and therefore warrant research oppor
