Under många decennier har världen påverkats av klimatförändringar, och problematiken fortsätter öka alltmer. Effekterna av människoskapade klimatförändringar leder till förödande konsekvenser i form av skador och förluster för människor världen över. Det finns en tendens till att skador och förluster drabbar utsatta människor i utvecklingsländer värst. Förutom att historisk ha bidragit minst till The effects of climate change are resulting in harmful impacts — known as loss and damage — hitting the most vulnerable countries the hardest. At COP27 in Sharm el- Sheikh, a new “loss and damage fund” was agreed upon, creating history within the international climate change policy arena. However, the question of who may benefit from this fund, remains. The fund is to address the countries that ar

För att effektivt hantera risker inom olika områden är kompetens avgörande, och träning utgör en väsentlig komponent för att uppnå denna kompetens. Denna rapport syftar till att utforska potentialen hos spel som en träningsmetod specifik för riskhantering. Resultaten antyder att spel utgör en lovande och effektiv metod för att träna och utveckla färdigheter inom riskhantering. RiskhanterinThe way education and learning are structured is constantly evolving. Today, education is taking on a more digital approach, with books, paper, and pen being phased out. This is largely due to technological advancements, which open up new ways of thinking about how education can be delivered. A new focus in education has been to involve students on an emotional level in order to increase their

The purpose of this qualitative study is to investigate what impact adult children describe as a result of their parents’ alcohol abuse while growing up and what coping strategies the children use to deal with the impact of their parent's alcohol abuse. To get the answers to the study we used eight biographies to base the empirical data on which the theory of coping was used to analyze the mat

Regarding climate change and the future need för renewable energy, hydrogen is considered to be an important component in energy storage systems. However, the use of hydrogen is fraught with risk due to its chemical properties. This thesis deals with the problem of modelling heat transfer from hydrogen jet flames hitting surfaces. This paper aims to assess how well KFX reproduces results of hydrog

I juni 2023 presenterades SOU 2023:36. Betänkandet syftar till att utreda frågan om hur EU-kommissionen och Rådets direktiv om tillräckliga minimilöner i Europeiska unionen ska implementeras i den svenska rätten. Betänkandet har bemötts av viss kritik i remissvar från berörda aktörer och experter inom området. Främst med anledning av hur betänkandet behandlar frågan om enskilda rättigheter samt tä

Det finns till dags dato inget entydigt svar på vad som ger ett bra utfall i psykoterapeutisk behandling, faktorer som anses gemensamma för alla sorters terapi, så kallade Common Factors (CF) eller den specifika terapimetoden. Definitionen av CF varierar och kan härledas till alla delar av terapi såsom patientfaktorer, förändringsprocess och terapeutfaktorer. Som en del av POSE-projektet undersöktUnderstanding what constitutes a positive outcome in psychotherapeutic treatment remains a challenge, whether attributed to Common Factors (CF) shared across therapies or specific therapeutic methods. The definition of CF varies and can be traced to all aspects of therapy, including patient and therapist factors and the process of change. This study, as part of the POSE-project, examined the psych

In many parts of the world, people within the lgbtqi+ community are forced to leave their countries and flee to a new one. This is a consequence of legislation and societal norms that criminalize and expose the group to threats and violence. Because of this, individuals from all over the world seek rescue in Sweden and therefore apply for asylum based on gender identity and sexual orientation. The

Barnviken in Malmö has persistently encountered challenges associated with elevated concentrations of Escherichia coli (E. coli) without a discernible source of contamination. A notable concentration peak has been identified at the outflow of the stream traversing Hammer's Park, prompting speculation regarding the stream's potential role as the origin of the contamination. In order to inve

Bakgrund: Sepsis är ett allvarligt sjukdomstillstånd som årligen drabbar omkring 48,9 miljoner människor globalt. Sjukdomsförloppet är snabbt och komplext och på grund av sepsis höga mortalitet är det viktigt att sjuksköterskan är uppmärksam och har förmåga att identifiera tillståndet tidigt. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskans erfarenheter av att tidigt upptäcka patienter med sepsis. M

The 2010s have raised questions about the influence of small central banks in an integrated economy. This thesis investigates the efficacy of the Swedish Riksbank and the effect of economic integration since the adoption of a floating exchange rate in 1993. Theoretically, I examine how financial integration and trade may impact the Mundell-Fleming trilemma. To investigate the impact of integration

The purpose of this study was to increase an understanding of how school counselors in Sweden reason about the social problem with truants, “Hemmasittare '' in Swedish, and how the elementary schools work with this. To enable the purpose of the study to be maintained, a qualitative interview study became current. Seven semi-structured interviews with school counselors were conducted. The e

This study examines the influence of online ESG sentiment on credit market price movement in the banking sector. By employing a panel regression model with fixed effect for firms and time, the study’s findings indicate an inverse relationship between online ESG sentiment and CDS spread in accordance, to some extent, with previous literature. Additionally, the study investigates the impact througho

The primary objective of this investigation entailed examining the sexual knowledge, attitudes, and behaviors of young adults aged 18-29 who were enrolled at Lund University. Additionally, the study sought to determine whether a statistical relationship exists between knowledge, attitudes, and practices. Data collection employed a web-based survey method, sent out to a randomized sample of 1,000 s

The emergence of the refugee gang subculture has changed its focus from being a regional to a worldwide problem, drawing on the findings of previous studies. Many past studies suggest that the massive influx of Rohingya refugees from Myanmar has not only amplified existing socioeconomic challenges but has also fueled concerns within the host population in Bangladesh regarding organized gang violen

Tramways are a sustainable and accessible mode for public transport. They promote urban development and contribute to a more attractive city. Light rail, but also public transport as a whole, is an important part of society as it is accessible to everyone and reduces the amount of cars needed. The two tramlines in Norrköping account for two thirds of public transport travel in the city. The purpos

Narratives play a crucial role both in people’s lives and in various areas of the social, cultural and political realms. This thesis, drawing from an understanding of judicial sentences as a type of narrative, explores the complex domain of rape justice within the Spanish legal system. The aim is to discover the underpinning cultural meanings and constructions of rape in court sentences, by conduc

This study investigates the validity of the Permanent Income Hypothesis (PIH) across seven countries from 1970 to 2021. Using Hall's random-walk model and Campbell and Mankiw’s IV model, I investigate if the consumption patterns align with the implications of the PIH and if there are differences between the countries studied. The analysis suggests evidence against the PIH, revealing deviat

Recent decades have witnessed an innovation in genetics and biomedical practices, shifting the practice from treatment to prevention. Testing healthy individuals for genetic inherited diseases has now become increasingly common, preventing potential disease by offering early screenings, medication, or potentially surgery, reducing the genetic risk from developing into disease. Though, social scien

Extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and cold spells, are predicted to increase under climate change, which can have significant negative effects on fitness and survival of wildlife. If such variations are timed during development, they can affect growth and subsequent performance in birds, with influence over long-term temperature tolerance. Developmental temperature can also have direct eff
