En uppsats som undersöker innehållet i ”Agenda for Accelerated Country Action for Women, Girls, Gender Equality and HIV – Operational plan for the UNAIDS action framework: addressing women, girls, gender equality and HIV” och tolkar det genom en institutionell teori med komplement av ett feministiskt perspektiv. Resultatet blir att bristen hos agendan kan förklaras genom institutionella begrepp så
Denna uppsats syftar till att se till samspelet mellan de komplexa begreppen effektivitet och rationalitet. Det är två begrepp som vanligtvis förekommer inom verksamheten som jagar ständig förbättring. Vi vill dock lyfta dess komplexa innebörd genom att framhäva hur personalen inom en organisation med lättdefinierade arbetsuppgifter kan påverka olika arbetsmoments utfall. Genom den kvalitativa ans
Galagos are an understudied family of primates which inhabit much of Sub-Saharan Africa, some of which are potentially at risk. The coastal forests of East Africa are home to many galagos, however this habitat is under threat from an increasing human population seeking timber, charcoal and land for agriculture, amongst other pressures. This study used repeated transect methods when estimating the
Förr i tiden existerade närmare 90 % fler våtmarker på Öland än vad som finns idag. Innan ut-dikningen hade ägt rum fungerade Ölands strandvallar som en barriär för vattnet så det förhindrades att strömma ut mot Östersjön. I huvudsak lutar topografin på Öland österut vilket bidrar till att vattnet automatiskt transporteras från väst mot öst. Genom att dika ut och ta bort delar av de naturliga hindIn the past the need to enhance land use for agricultural purposes resulted in ditching of land and existing beach deposits to reduce wetlands. The ditching resulted in a 90% decrease of wetlands on Öland together with a decrease in groundwater. Before the drainage had started the beach deposits on Öland worked as a barrier that pre-vented the water to run off towards the Baltic Sea. The topograph
Illegal timber harvest and trade is one of the main challenges in the context of global deforestation and sustainability. Different governance and self-governance initiatives throughout the history with the aim to regulate global forest commons have received plenty of criticism. This research investigates the potential of genetic timber tracking technologies as a tool to enhance existing systems a
The aim for this Master Thesis was to design a new product used in weight training for the Swedish barbell company Eleiko. From the beginning nothing was specified about what sort of equipment that was going to be designed. The thesis has gone through the whole process from figuring out what type of product will be most beneficial for the company to having drawings ready for building a prototype.
This study has focused on the approach of the Indian government with additional voices from women’s rights activist and researchers. The study has investigated how the surrogacy industry is approached and dealt with within the political economy sphere. It presents an exemplifying case of how business based on bio-‐medical advancements and globalization is dealt with on a national level. The main
Sustainability has become one of the key challenges in the fashion industry, which has been criticized for intense resource use, severe environmental impacts and wasteful business model. There have been a lot of new attempts and initiatives to promote sustainable fashion consumption. Collaborative consumption has been highlighted as one of the alternatives to conventional mass consumption. The ide
Education is a significant topic in China. The practice of what is known as “school choice” at compulsory education level (xiaoshengchu) has attracted attention from all government, media, and academic circle.

In the aftermath of the public protests now known as the “Umbrella Revolution”, many Hongkongers struggle to renegotiate what it means to be “Chinese”. Previous agreements about universal suffrage and political autonomy in Hong Kong, as outlined in the “One Country, Two System”-policy, now appear like broken promises. This thesis asks the question whether the Umbrella Revolution has changed the un
The advanced research that is being carried out in different science fields today requires advanced technologies; for the study of distant places and hidden elements of our universe tools like The Hubble Telescope, Voyager 2 and the Very Large Array has been to great use. In the same way, a neutron source and its instruments enable scientist to see and understand basic atomic structures and forces.
Unlike commonly used regular transformers, high voltage, high frequency, pulsed transformers are generally represented in special purpose applications. This often means that these electrical devices must be tailored in accordance with the specic requirements of the project. The pulse transformer under analysis in this thesis is a prototype machine variation of which will serve as an essential part
This qualitative study explores whether antithesis, as a didactic rhetorical tool, may enhance the likelihood of understanding complex biology-related information. Research shows that students lack the ability of communicating expert knowledge to laymen since they do not understand subject matter well enough themselves due to scientific language. Hence, scientific language use should be studied in
The successful construction of any well-functioning structure is dependent on a good understanding of the ground on which it lies. Several methods and techniques have been developed to model subsurface conditions and properties with the purpose of gaining comprehensive knowledge of geological conditions. Seismic refraction presents a geophysical method of subsurface investigation capable of provid
This thesis is about women between 20-25 years and their insecureness when they moving around Lund in the evening hours. I analyzed at which specific places in Lund women felt insecure, if the women chose to take detours. The thesis also answers which physical aspects of the places that makes the women feel insecure and also how the municipality of Lund have worked and planned the city of Lund wit
Climate change is an issue that can no longer be ignored and actions are taken all over the world in order to prevent the effects from becoming too severe. The energy system is transitioning towards more renewable energy sources and wind power has an important role in this development. The penetration of wind power in a lot of countries all over the world has increased rapidly during the last deca
En studie med fokus på vad som utgör detta glapp avseende platsmarknadsföringens vision för Malmös senaste upprustningsprojekt i relation till mottagargruppens attityd och beteende som bekräftar respektive förkastar dessa riktlinjer.
Youth`s leisure time is a valuable time which can be used by the society to improve their competences and prevent the youths from crimes which cost society in term of economic expenditure and public safety loss. Svalov municipality has been ranked, according to Kfmu, as one of the worst municipality in Sweden in providing recreational activity for their youths. The study looks at the relation betw
Project has different basis that must be completed to be able to present a finished product. Knowledge of the area and how the projection works will be used in efforts to implement the empirical study. Design assumptions are divided into two groups where some items are specific to a particular product while others are general conditions in all projects. The goal is to identify the conditions and a
