Bygg- och fastighetssektorn står för en avsevärd del av Sveriges klimatpåverkan och resursanvändning, där stålproduktionen är en betydande faktor. Trots att stål är ett material med hög återvinningsgrad är direktåterbruket av bärande stålkomponenter i dagsläget begränsat. Detta utgör en outnyttjad potential för att minska koldioxidutsläpp och främja en cirkulär ekonomi, där Design för Demontering The construction and real estate sector accounts for a considerable share of Sweden's climate impact and resource use, with steel production being a significant factor. Although steel is a material with a high recycling rate, the direct reuse of load-bearing steel components is currently limited. This represents an untapped potential for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and promoting a circul

This study focuses on the national system for knowledge-driven management within Swedish healthcare. The study combines theories of governance and implementation with the aim of both analyze the system of knowledge-driven management descriptively, and how it is implemented by local actors. By using text analysis and interviews, the main finding is the complex reality of the system, involving actor

The relationship between development and democracy is robust and enjoys strong scholarly support. While research traditionally has favored country-level comparisons based on objective indicators when studying this relationship, this study crafts an individual-level, perceptions-based index of development, and two measures of support for democracy as a regime type, to approach the relationship. The

Genom alla tider har migration varit ett frekvent inslag i människans utveckling. Idag har globaliseringen och de teknologiska framstegen möjliggjort ett än större flöde av människor världen över. De flesta länderna i den industrialiserade världen har en svag och i vissa fall till och med en negativ befolkningstillväxt samtidigt som många av u-länderna kämpar med en stark befolkningstillväxt. Dett

In ADB Safegate's airfield lighting product portfolio, two sizes of LED inset luminaires consist of similar internal components with different design. This project has investigated the possibilities to find generic design solutions for the internal components to fit both product sizes. By using modularized components the company will decrease the indirect costs of the product, for instance cos

Seminar date: 2nd June 2014 Purpose: The study's purpose is to investigate accountability in social enterprises. This is to answer the main thesis question of whether social enterprises and their accountability could provide the world with an alternative form of capitalism where humanitarian crises are better addressed. Methodology: The study applies a qualitative approach based on inductive

This thesis presents results from a study of socioeconomic and climate effects connected to a sugarcane ethanol expansion scenario in the Pontal do Paranapanema region, Sao Paulo state, Brazil. Sugarcane ethanol prodcution is expected to grow in the Sao Paulo state. Pontal do Paranapanema is the only region in the state where a large scale sugarcane expansion can take placré and this expansion wil

Klimatförändringar orsakade av antropogena faktorer har en ökande effekt på både naturliga och humana system. Klimatförändringar bidrar till en förändring av varaktigheten, frekvensen och intensiteten av extrema väderhändelser (som till exempel stormar, översvämningar och värmeböljor). Några exempel på konsekvenser från klimatförändringar på de humana systemen är förlust av liv, förlust av egendomThe changing climate caused by anthropogenic factors has an increasing effect on natural and human systems. There is therefore an increasing need for society to adapt to the effects of climate change (IPCC, 2012; Rescalvo et al., 2013) This is vital since the effects of climate change are already being noticed in many parts of the world (Rescalvo et al., 2013). However, municipalities in Sweden ge

The purpose of the thesis is to explore and understand the meaning, sources, and role of brands’ perceived innovativeness to talents due to the proposed importance of the attribute within the so-called war for talents as well as contemporary theoretical and practical discourse. In accordance with the relativistic and interpretivist stance taken, a qualitative methodology is adapted through the uti

According to estimates advanced by the United Nations, the annual SDG funding gap amounts to $2.5 trillion. The covid-19 pandemic further exacerbated the underlying issues as the global recession led to an unprecedented rise in public debts and economic distress triggered by defaults, capital flights and fiscal austerity. In light of these challenges, the Global Investors for Sustainable Developme

Insekters DNA i luften? På senare år har flera forskningsrapporter visat att olika insektgrupper drastiskt minskar i antal. Till följd av detta kan man även se att artkompositionen förändrats och att andra organismer som är beroende av insekter, antingen för pollinering eller som föda, också minskar i antal. För att kunna förstå varför dessa förändringar sker så krävs en kontinuerlig övervakning In the face of widely reported declines in insect abundance and diversity, there is a great need for faster and easier insect monitoring methods as the already established methods are time consuming and only target specific species groups. In this study I investigate if metabarcoding of eDNA samples collected from the air can i) detect and identify insect species, ii) help quantify spatial and tem

Title: “With Great Freedom Comes Great Responsibility” - A Qualitative Study of Managers’ and Their Respective Employees’ Experiences of Mandatory Remote Work and Relationships in this Work Setting Authors: Anna Rebeka Dinnyes & Siri McGarvey Supervisor: Monika Müller, Lund University, Sweden Examiner: Stefan Sveningsson, Lund University, Sweden Course: BUSN49, Degree Project in Master’s P

Trauma accounts for around 4.4 million deaths annually and is among the leading causes of death, disproportionately affecting low- and middle-income countries. Trauma quality improvement programmes may reduce adverse patient outcomes but lack robust evidence. This study assessed the effect of implementing a trauma quality improvement programme using audit filters on health-related quality of life

När organisationer tvingas förändras för att klara av kraven i omvärlden, ställs det ofta krav på att organisationsmedlemmarna ska förändra sitt arbetssätt eller tillägna sig nya kunskaper och förmågor. Det finns dock en risk för att hinder, av olika slag, hindrar medarbetarnas lärande från att nå upp till de önskade utfallen. Fokus för denna studie är ett produktionsföretag inom livsmedelsbransch

This thesis deals with driving forces for CSR reporting in China. More and more international companies have published their CSR reports under the concern of sustainable development. Chinese companies are facing the environmental and social challenges in China today. CSR reporting has been taken as a sustainable development strategy by the Chinese Central Government and the pioneering Chinese comp

By tradition the humanities have been anthropocentrically focused on the lives of human beings in arts and literature. The limited analysis of what other species do in literature – and of the different relations between humans and animals that are represented – has sustained the notion of a hierachical divide between humans and other species, thereby reducing the ethical potential of literature to

The aim of the thesis is to present a safety, health and environmental management system based on ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 for Industry Park of Sweden. The resulting system is based on a gap analysis between an ideal system and IPOS existing management system. The resulting management system emphasis safety culture before regulations and lets the tenants of the Industry Park proceed with their in
