Since the 1980s, community seed banks (CSBs) have been established around the world to conserve and improve access to indigenous seed for smallholder communities and contribute to food and seed sovereignty.

We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of internet-delivered, therapist-supported, and parent-assisted ERP for treatment of tics in children and young people with Tourette syndrome or chronic tic disorder. Methods: This multicentre, parallel group, single-blin
Since the Lisbon Treaty failed in strengthening the EU’s global actorness – not least within Russia’s sphere of interest – the EU has been described as ‘a global actor past its peak’. However, following Azerbaijan’s aggressions on Armenian sovereign territory in September 2022, Armenia invited the EU to deploy a CSDP mission in the country. Since Armenia is one of Russia’s closest allies and CSDP
This study seeks to understand and explain why Sweden and Finland voted differently in the Council of the European Union on the proposal of a minimum wage directive. The two countries share a labor market system, based in collective bargaining and important roles for trade unions and employer organizations, without a legally set minimum wage. At the time, the two countries hade ideologically simil

This thesis examines the imagery of the mythological character Omphale in Roman art, from the late Republic to the end of the Severan period; in a qualitative collection of images containing sculptures, wall paintings, jewellery and gemstones. This myth portrays a rather different, and somewhat provocative female character that was adapted from Greek mythology into Roman culture in the last centur
This thesis examines the challenges faced by recent immigrants to Canada in having their educational credentials and work experience recognised within the Canadian labour market. Using Canadian census microdata from 2021, the study assesses the wage gap between immigrants and native-born Canadians, with a specific focus on the returns to educational credentials and work experience for both groups.
The emergence of artificial intelligence, especially machine-learning methods, challenges the set of legal guarantees put in place in Europe to combat discrimination and ensure equal treatment. This paper will focus on cases of algorithmic discrimination in the context of recruitment as a business practice. Particular in the field of recruitment of workers, which has always been a field where EU n
Since the rise of the tourism industry in Barbados in the 1960s a vast emphasis has been placed on expanding high dollar luxury tourism that is targeted towards specific social and economic classes in order to maintain foreign exchange. The majority of this high dollar tourism development has been predominately concentrated on the diminishing western coastlines of Barbados. Moreover, the focus on
Denna studie fokuserar på agila projektmetoder men utesluter inte traditionella metoder, då de fortfarande används och de kan ställas mot det agila. De tre vanligaste agila metoderna (Scrum, Kanban och XP) samt den mest välkända traditionella metoden (Vattenfallsmetoden) behandlas. De agila metoderna fokuserar på att leverera värde till kunden och ett projekt anses avslutat när användaren är nöjd,
Människor skapar emotionella band till vissa platser, s.k. platsanknytningar, vilka anses starka nog att påverka samt påverkas av deras identiteter. Banden har undersökts för många typer av platser, däribland religiösa platser, men det är hittills oklart vad pilgrimers platsanknytning korrelerar med och varför. Denna studie syftar därför till att jämföra katolska och evangelikalt protestantiska pi
The wax on the stem and leafs of the barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) plant has a protective function and is produced by the cells on the plant's outer surfaces. There are several available barley mutants where the wax production has been stopped. Four mutants are the single-site mutants cer-c.36, cer-q.42, ceru. 21 and the deletion mutant cer-cqu.724. We phenotyped 636 barley plants and collected
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur ett företag kan hantera sin valutarisk- och exponering. Vi kommer att genomföra undersökningen genom att kartlägga ett fallföretags nuvarande situation, för att därefter försöka finna ett effektivt sätt för det att hantera densamma. Som metod för att uppnå syftet har en kvalitativ fallstudie genomförts. Denna har gett oss möjlighet att studera vårt pro

The safe and just Earth System Boundary for groundwater is transgressed in a quarter of aquifers in Spain, with irrigated agriculture being the largest driver of overexploitation. Guided by the Earth System Boundary Framework, this thesis studies interventions that reversed agricultural groundwater depletion. Through a systematic literature review, five such cases were identified. While aquifer ab
