This thesis examines the ongoing violent situation with the criminal networks in Sweden, what the obligations under article 19 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child entail and to what extent the measures taken by the Swedish government live up to these obligations. Many children today are in various ways being affected by the gang-related violence, especially those who live in the vulner
Bergkross är det främsta materialet för uppbyggnad av vägar idag. Det är ett jungfruligt material som bara ökar i produktion för användning i anläggningssektorn. För att minska användningen och i förlängningen också produktionen av jungfruliga material undersöks mer sekundära ballastmaterial som exempelvis slaggrus för att nå ett cirkulärt flöde. Slaggrus har undersökts utifrån olika aspekter meCrushed stone is the main material for building roads today. It is a virgin material that is only increasing in production for use in the construction sector. To reduce the use of virgin materials, and with it the production, more secondary aggregate materials such as Municipal solid waste incinerated (MSWI) bottom ash are being investigated to achieve a circular flow. MSWI bottom ash has been in
This study explores how counselors in healthcare experience and manage patients' difficult life situations, focusing on communication, strategies, and recovery. The role of a counselor is known to be emotionally demanding, and this study hypothesizes that counselors’ well-being may deteriorate if these emotional stressors are not effectively managed. To mitigate the risks of burnout and compas
I Skellefteå kommun pågår en unik samhällsomvandling och befolkningsutveckling. Sedan etableringen av batterifabriken Northvolt år 2018 har tusentals arbetare från andra delar av världen på kort tid flyttat till kommunen. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur tjänstepersoner i offentlig sektor ser på utmaningar och möjligheter i samhällsomvandlingen ur ett socialt hållbarhetsperspektiv. The establishment of Northvolt's megafactory in Skellefteå has led to an influx of thousands of foreign workers and a unique transformation of the local community. This study explores how local public officials perceive challenges and opportunities through the lens of social sustainability. Four semi-structured interviews reveal that the public officials tell of a fast-paced transformation and
Cancer överkommer kroppens immunförsvar och andra tumör-bekämpande system, bland annat genom att öka eller minska uttrycket av vissa gener. Gener som är viktiga för cell-cykelprogressionen är ofta påverkade. Till exempel är genen wee1 ofta överuttryckt i cancer. wee1s funktion är att koda för ett protein som förhindrar att cellen fortsätter i cellcykeln om den har trasigt DNA. Ett förslag på canceIn this study the yeast S. pombe is used to try to find genes which can (potentially in the future) be targeted in cancer cells to stop the cells from growing. WEE1 is a kinase important for proper cell-cycle progression, as it inhibits cyclin-dependent kinases activity. It is overexpressed in many cancers and many studies are being done researching how WEE1 inhibitors can be used as a cancer trea
Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur grammatikundervisningen i kursen Svenska 2 kan se ut. Genom en semistrukturerad intervju studeras sex verksamma svensklärares beskrivning av sitt grammatikinnehåll och sitt resonemang kring innehållsurvalet. Resultatet visar att det finns en samsyn mellan majoriteten av lärarna kring vilket innehåll de inkluderar: fraser, satsdelar och bisatser i kombination meHow can grammar teaching be designed in the course Svenska 2? An interview study about Swedish teachers’ grammar teaching in the course Svenska 2 The purpose of this study was to investigate how grammar teaching can be designed in the course Svenska 2. Through the method of semi structured interview, six Swedish teachers’ description of their selection of grammar content as well as their explanat
Plastic residues can fragment into nanoplastics and bring various pollutants to the soil, which results in a massive environmental risk that is endangering entire ecosystems. Soil protists, as a vital part of microbial food webs and carbon cycles, are also considered to be strongly affected by the presence of nanoplastics. Until now, many studies have found that plastic residues can have either po
Instruerande texter finns i många olika varianter, men gemensamt för dem är den vägledande funktionen. Den här uppsatsen redogör för en fallstudie av en digital användarguide för studenter som använder lärplattformen Canvas. Syftet är att ta reda på hur en användarguide behöver se ut för att fungera för sina användare. Fallstudien undersöker användarguidens beståndsdelar och komposition genom text

This thesis explores the evolution of Canadian child welfare policies through a historical lens, focusing on the impact of colonial legacies on Indigenous communities. By analyzing the key parameters of education, healthcare, child labour, and child protection across different historical periods, the study reveals how universalist narratives rooted in Eurocentric norms have systematically marginal
Second-hand-marknaden har under de senaste åren växt markant, detta på grund av ett ökat intresse hos konsumenterna. Detta konsumentintresse har i sin tur bidragit till att marknaden utvecklats från en bransch med få aktörer som drivs av välgörenhet, till en marknad med flera olika aktörer där vissa av dessa drivs av ett vinstintresse. Dessa vinstdrivande aktörer har ett mer gediget fokus på att s
I takt med ett ökat klimatarbete och ambitioner på EU-nivå i from av EU:s taxonomi, har bygg- och anläggningssektorn tagit fram en färdplan gällande omställningen för att nå nettonollutsälpp senast 2045. Som en del av utvecklingen presenterar Swedish Green Building Council att miljöcertifieringar säkerställer hållbara byggnader, vilket även stöds av tidigare forskning. Utmaningen med miljöcertifieThis study has investigated the incentives for obtaining BREEAM certification for a building. The study focused on a case of BREEAM certification at the Excellent level and compared it with the lowest energy requirements in Sweden from an energy, cost, and climate perspective. The reference object for the study is a building, soon to be finished, in Linköping Sweden intended for healthcare and res

This study investigates, from the social workers' point of view, how child poverty affects the normal development of children and young people, what strategies vulnerable children and young people use to deal with economic hardship in their everyday lives, and how the child's perspective and child poverty are understood and considered in the social work with children, young people, and fam
Lanzarote is an island that is part of the intraplate ocean island volcanism that makes up the Canary archipelago. The Timanfaya eruption (1730-36) was a crucial event in the geological history of Lanzarote. It is considered an anomaly in the volcanic record of the archipelago due to its long eruptive activity, large volume of lava and composition (alkali basalts evolving into tholeiites). The ori
This thesis uses real data from the Bank of International Settlements to create financial networks for the interbank market using five different methods for network reconstruction. The goal is to analyze how defaults propagate to assess the importance of banks and to examine how the network’s structure affects the system’s vulnerability. By applying network theory, communicability theory, and the
Heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems are ubiquitous and are one of the major components responsible for energy consumption in a typical building system. In light of the imminent energy crisis, there is an increasing demand to revisit the building systems and save as much energy as possible. In this regard, the scope of the thesis is to explore opportunities for data-driven opt
This study aimed to examine how healthcare workers, who have taken part in internal reflection meetings, and counselors, who lead the meetings, describe their experience, their understanding of the purpose of these meetings, and what this means for the healthcare workers' motivation to participate in the internal reflection meetings. The method used was a case study with semi-structured interv
Climate change and biodiversity loss present critical challenges for humanity, yet biodiversity often remains overlooked in corporate sustainability strategies. This study, conducted within Schneider Electric’s environ- mental team, aims to address this gap by comparing the carbon intensity and biodiversity impacts of new production processes for aluminum and steel against conventional methods. Ut
