Urbanization and Density in Zanzibar - Recommendations for Sustainable Urban Development from Swahili houses to low-rise multi-storey houses. The rapid urbanization process in Africa is a major challenge for politicians, urban planners and society in general. The archipelago of Zanzibar in Tanzania is in the middle of this process. Traditionally, low and middle income families live in Swahili hous
The paper explored current approaches to legal aid and weather they effectively incorporate legal empowerment strategies for vulnerable women in Uganda. The conception and application of legal empowerment of the poor was analyzed from a capabilities perspective informed by “development as freedom” focusing on women. The study presented an investigation on how one can bring together the theoretical
This thesis purpose is to examine what impact employer branding and organisational culture has on individual’s identity construction from a socially constructed view. We have used a qualitative research method based on an anti-positivistic epistemology and a socially constructed ontological perspective. We have conducted a case study at Quarter Consulting (a pseudonym for one of "The big 4&qu
This paper investigates the feasibility of OCA for ASEAN after the implementation of ASEAN Economic Community Blueprint in 2008. Dynamic Conditional Correlation (DCC) model with and without a structural break are used to identify whether the policy implemented facilitates the region to move closer to a single currency area. Industrial production index growth rate and change in short-term interest
Patienter med adolescent idiopatisk skolios (AIS) genomgår regelbundna röntgenundersökningar för uppföljning av skolios. Syfte med denna litteraturstudie var att undersöka vilka faktorer som kan påverkas för att förändra stråldosen vid radiologisk uppföljning av patienter med AIS. Genom granskning av litteratur framkom exempel på hur stråldos kan påverkas vid uppföljning av AIS. Teman som utkrista
In 2012, the Greater Mekong Sub-region (GMS), an initiative launched by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to promote regional integration and development between six mainland Southeast Asian countries, will reach its twentieth anniversary. Throughout the past twenty years, the GMS has been considered as highly successful, in comparison with other regional initiatives, in improving connectivity, com
Målet med uppsatsen är att ta del av fiollärares tankar och erfarenheter av hur man kan lära ut vibrato i undervisningen, samt konsekvenserna av olika tillvägagångssätt. Fem fiollärare har intervjuats. Likheter och skillnader bland svaren jämförs med tidigare forskning och äldre skrifter om violinundervisning samt olika fiolskolor. Min slutsats är att det verkar vara angeläget att redan från förstTitle: Vibrato- a violin-methodical perspective. What is important to think of when teaching vibrato? The aim of this paper is to take part of the thoughts and experiences of violin teachers about how to teach vibrato, and to explore the consequences of different ways to proceed. Five teachers have been interviewed. Similarities and differences have been compared with earlier studies, historic wri
Inhemsk mikroalg skapar hållbarhet genom kombination av produktion och vattenrening Genom att använda snabbväxande mikroalger i avloppsvatten för produktion av biomassa har vattnet renats och det enda som tillsätts är solljus och koldioxid. Denna metod möjliggör hållbar produktion av en rad produkter, däribland biobränslen, samtidigt som samhällstjänster såsom vatten- och luftrening utförs på köpAbstract A few local microalgae was isolated and cultivated in vertical column with artificial lighting in 12 h light cycles in wastewater at the local wastewater treatment plant. The growth of the algae strains was observed and the fastest growing (Scenedesmus sp.) was subsequently cultivated outdoors under natural sunlight. pH controlled CO2 input resulted in up to twice as high biomass product
The European Union Strategy for the Baltic Sea Region was launched in 2009 after an extensive and inclusive consultation process lead by the European Commission; however, during the implementation phase un-clarities in its leadership responsibilities have emerged. The thesis adopts a case study design with the aim of examining the EUSBSR leadership structure, more precisely the European Commissio
Power grids worldwide are expanding not only driven by ambitious clean energy, but also because of the rising need for reliable energy. Key components of these power grids are transformers. Transformers are traditionally filled with mineral oil, to serve as a coolant and dielectric insulator. Now globally a rising trend is observed towards the adoption of less flammable, biodegradable transformer
Popular Science Summary Konsten att kunna ta bort ett syre Alla celler har DNA, som måste repareras och kopieras för att livet ska fortgå. För att kunna göra detta måste det finnas byggstenar. En av alla processer som ser till att alla delar finns i rätt mängd innefattar bara ett protein. Ett protein som får instruktioner från många håll för att gå igenom en komplicerad process som tillverkar dessThe protein ribonucleotide reductase catalyses the de novo synthesis of deoxyribonucleotides (dNTPs) from ribonucleotides (NTPs), using radical chemistry. It is under strict allosteric regulation, partly from the dNTPs it synthesises that regulate what substrate should be synthesised, but also from dATP/ATP, which regulates overall activity. It is a protein that is found in almost every living org
This project utilizes an electrochemical recover unit to extract succinic acid through an anion exchange membrane. The extraction was first used in abiotic experiments using synthetic broth mimicking a fermentation with Actinobacillus succinogenes. The extraction was favored by high salinity of the anolyte and a pH controlled at pH 7 in the catholyte. Batch fermentations were coupled with the extr
Forecasting wind has always been an interesting subject, and as large parts of the world are relying more on wind for power production it is becoming even more important to have reliable forecasts. Probabilistic forecasts, where distributions are predicted in contrast to deterministic forecasts, are impor- tant for informed decision making. We apply two methods based on conformal prediction for pr
Quality Indicators: Help or hinder? - The study examines the National Board of Health and Welfare's construction of quality in women's shelters in relation to women's safety and security. The study is based on the quality indicators developed by the National Board of Health and Welfare on behalf of the government. The National Board of Health and Welfare is an authority in Sweden with
Rainforests are of great importance for biodiversity and several ecosystem services. In Rwanda, a considerable decline in rainforest covers have been observed during the last decades. The Gishwati-Mukura Forest is one of the rainforests in Rwanda that has experienced a substantial reduction in forest cover, 99.4 %. The aim of this research has been to investigate what the changes in forest cover o
Abstract The glycosaminoglycan dermatan sulfate plays a crucial role in the process of tumorigenesis, due to increased flexibility in the polysaccharide chain, when glucuronic acid, in the glycan chondroitin sulfate, epimerizes into iduronic acid. The conversion facilitates a change in the interaction with certain proteins such as growth factors, angiogenic factors, and cytokines. The enzyme invol
Situated in the context of the global rise of the right and growing anti-feminist and anti-gender mobilization, this thesis explores the impacts of Jair Bolsonaro's right-wing populist government (2019-2022) on feminist activism in Brazil from an activist's perspective. It investigates the shifts and disruptions this government has entailed on three levels: in the realms of social public p
