Since the early 1990’s, sector-wide evaluation reports have identified substantial weaknesses connected to women’s empowerment and gender equality interventions. These weaknesses result from the failure to institutionalise activities, a lack of resources and deficient reporting of results. Additionally, recent evaluation reports have identified the same weaknesses as were identified in the early 1

This is a Bachelor thesis on the subject of the food industry’s influence over the EU institutions. The purpose of the thesis is to find out how the great food companies affect the EU legislation on sugar regulation through lobbying. The thesis describes how the EU food- and health policies are shaped and how the lobbying works. The methodology used for the thesis is a qualitative content analysis

Bakgrund: Ångestsyndrom kan bidra till svårigheter i vardagliga livet och påverka individens livssituation, aktivitetsbalans och hälsa. Arbetsterapeutiska interventioner genomförs för att påverka individens görande, tänkande och/eller kännande för att uppnå enförändring. Forskning visar att det finns en del interventioner riktade mot denna typ av grupp, men ytterst lite som fokuserar på att främja

Kraftringens geotermianläggning i Lund har varit i drift sen 1984. Det är den enda stora geoter-miska anläggningen i Sverige. Efter mer än 30 års drift är det dags att utvärdera hur det har fungerat. Arbetet be-skriver de geologiska förutsättningarna som stratigrafi (formation), formationstemperatur, typ av akvifer, porositet, permeabilitet och vattenkemi, samt driftdata, systemuppbyggnad, funktioThe geothermal heat plant in Lund has been running since 1984. It is the only one of its kind in Sweden. After running for more than 30 years it’s now time to evaluate the experiences from the long operational period of the heat plant. This report describes the geological conditions like the formation, temperature of the geothermal water, aquifer, porosity, permeability, and chemistry of the forma

Den globala uppvärmningen är ett av de största hot mot vår planet och mänsklighet idag. Elektriska fordon (EF) kan visa sig vara en stor hjälp för att bekämpa detta hot. Antagningsgraden av elektriska och elektroniska komponenter är dock fortfarande ganska långsam. Huvudmålet med denna avhandling är att designa en smartphoneapplikation med en användarcentrerad designprocess (ACD) som syftar till aGlobal warming is one of the biggest threats to our planet and humanity today. Electric vehicles (EV) can prove to be a great help in combating this threat. However, the adoption rate of EVs is still quite slow. The main goal of this thesis is to design a smartphone application using a human-centred design (HCD) process that aims to help people with switching to an EV. The project followed a clas

In the EU, climate policy-making takes place in a complex environment, where multiple climate and energy policy instruments co-exist and interact together. Interactions between different climate and energy instruments can affect - positively or negatively - the achievement of the climate targets. However, the performance of instruments is often evaluated without taking into account those interacti

The paper analyses data from the “Forbes World Billionaires List” from 1996 to 2015. Decomposing the sample finds, that inherited wealth exhibits higher levels of inequality than self-made wealth. Overall inequality decreases and the inequality level of the self-made subgroup converges to the one of inherited wealth. In addition, self-made billionaires also experience higher social mobility.

Personuppgifter blir allt viktigare i den digitala ekonomin. Omfattningen av insamling och behandling ökar och riskerar att hota den personliga integriteten. Trots att personlig integritet och respekten för privatlivet räknas som som en mänsklig rättighet har dessa en väldigt svag position relativt andra rättigheter och samhälleliga behov. Detta ter sig ganska underligt eftersom den personliga intPersonal data is becoming increasingly important in the digital economy. The scope of collection and treatment increases and may threaten personal integrity. Although privacy is regarded as human right, privacy has a very weak position relative other rights and social needs. This is quite strange as privacy is often considered a prerequisite for many of the traditional rights such as freedom of sp

Hösten 2017 kom att bli historisk i Kenya då för första gången Högsta Domstolen ogiltigförklarade ett valresultat med motiveringen valfusk. Den här uppsatsen behandlar den utvalda tidsperiod av demokratiseringsprocessen då dessa omstridda presidentval hölls. Arbetet syftar till att undersöka om det demokratiska agerandet inom de största politiska partierna, Jubilee Party och NASA, respektive civil

En viktig utgångspunkt i straffrätten är det individuella ansvaret. Människor begår däremot ofta brott tillsammans. Denna uppsats handlar hur det straffrättsligt bör hanteras när flera personer begår brott gemensamt. Syftet med uppsatsen är att behandla den rubriceringsproblematik som kan uppstå när en tilltalad står åtalad för ett brott som är begånget i gemenskap. Begreppslig klarhet är genomgThe foundation of Criminal liability is the condition that everyone is responsible for their own actions, and those actions alone. People however, often commit crime together. This thesis deals with criminal liability when people commit crime as a collective. With the aim of conceptual clarity, the purpose of this essay is to process the classification problem that may arise when a defendant is

A core value is characterized by a number of values. To find a distinct definition can be difficult since the values and content differ in meaning for different people. The Swedish Government have lately (2017) however, presented a proposal to strengthen the orientation concerning the Swedish core values in the society orientation for the new citizens (refugees). The essay examines how the Swedis

The aim of this study was to examine if the ideas researchers mean characterize populist radical right parties is manifested in the Sweden Democrats election manifestos. Furthermore, it was of interest to examine if there is a difference in how and what’s emphasized between election manifestos for different municipalities and over time. Populist radical right parties are characterized by that they

Since the deregulation regarding temporary agency work in the 1990s the Swedish labour market have seen a rapid increase among the agency industry that does not seem to be showing any signs of slowing down. This has according to previous research led to a dualization of the labour market. This essay aims to research what happens to the discourse at workplaces with temporary agency workers in regar

Denna studie syftar till att identifiera samt behandla de utmaningar den svenska sjukvården ställs inför när informationssystem som man tidigare driftat i traditionella serverhallar på eller i närheten av sjukhus i allt större utsträckning ersätts eller migreras till molnbaserade lösningar. Genom en kvalitativ metodik har vi genom semistrukturerade intervjuer samlat in data från respondenter som a

However, because of the limitation of coherent business laws and government supervision, entering the Chinese market became a severe and complicated problem for different kinds of firms. Empirical papers show that networks, called guanxi in China make a primary contr

Eftersom den fysiska strukturen har en påverkan på kommunikationen, kulturen och gruppsammanhållningen

This paper presents a stochastic model for Meningococcal disease. Mathematical models for diseases are an important tool in population dynamics, and their results carry real-world implications as they guide policies and vaccination strategies. While the systems being modelled are generally stochastic in nature, deterministic models are often used, possibly to the detriment of accuracy. In this pro

This master thesis project has developed a method for a six-legged robot to traverse uneven terrains. From a previous project, the robot already possessed basic locomotion which had to be extensively redesigned. Several new subsystems have been introduced, such as a continuous balancing system, a system estimating the slope of the ground the robot is walking on, and method for detecting when the r
