This thesis aims to gain a better understanding of the modern subjugation of nature and women in the United States, by looking at the recent history of the Environmental Justice Movement (nature) and Reproductive Justice Movement (women). Through examining the history of these movements and relevant politics from 1970 to present day, events can be analyzed to shed light on the current political si

Concrete has been frequently used as a buildning material in modern time and is today one of the most applied buildningmaterials. Since the demand of sustainability is getting bigger, more focus is put on the large carbon dioxide emissions that happens due to the cementmanufacturing. One way to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions is to replace a part of the Portlandcement with residues from other

Den här studien syftar till att undersöka och analysera hur genomförandet av övervakningsåtgärderna drogtestning, kameraövervakning och geopositioner kan resultera i en konflikt mellan arbetsrätten och GDPR. För att uppnå syftet kommer frågeställningar att besvara vilka rättsliga befogenheter arbetsgivaren har att genomföra kontrollåtgärder, hur GDPR begränsar genomförandet av kontrollåtgärder sam

I ljuset av samtida fynd inom evidensbaserad rekrytering och en uppdaterad polisprofil har Plikt- och prövningsverket reviderat urvalsprocessen till polisutbildningen. Till följd av revideringen är det okänt hur olika delar av urvalsprocessen bidrar till den samlade bedömningen av kandidaters lämplighet. Urvalsprocessen består av fem urvalsmetoder, administrerade i sekventiella steg: kognitiv förmIn light of contemporary findings in evidence-based selection and an updated police profile, the Swedish Defence Conscription and Assessment Agency (SDCAA) have made adjustments to the selection process for police training. Following the adjustments, it is yet to be evaluated how different parts of the selection process contribute to the overall assessment of candidate suitability. The selection p

Bakgrund Handboll innehåller mycket kroppskontakt och riktningsförändringar i hög hastighet och med stora krafter. Baserat på sportens utformning är axelskador vanligt förekommande, både i form av akuta skador till följd av att spelare blir dragna i armen eller landar på armen, och överbelastningsskador från upprepade skott och passningar. Syftet med studien var att kartlägga och jämföra förekomst

In an effort to mitigate global climate change, the REDD+ mechanism (an acronym for ‘Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation plus the role of conservation, sustainable management of forests and enhancement of forest carbon stock’) continues to be put forward as an attractive carbon sequestration and forest conservation tool. The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), hosting m

Supervisor: Yoshiko Boregren Matsui Assessor: Anders Östnäs The purpose of this study was the basis of Sfi-teachers and social workers viewpoint to look into conditions immigrants have to learn Swedish. As we can

Regional offices grow of more and more importance for the interest representation in Brussels. This study involves what determines if a region takes lobbying actions, what mobilization variables are important for the performance and what lobbying strategy is supposed to be the most successful. The study is a case study on the regional mobilization within the development of the ‘EU Strategy for the

The main purpose of our essay was to study how children legal rights to both parents are practised in the social work. We wanted to find out the consequences of a forced and non practised contact rights. We have also looked in to which opportunities and difficulties that may appear in the social work with an aim to reach a well-function contact between a child and a parent. Our essay is presented

This research paper uses an explanatory sequential mixed method design to examine the factors influencing students' decision-making regarding their future and the impact of Brexit on these choices. The study aims to understand the interplay between various factors and Brexit's role in shaping students' decisions. Initially, quantitative analysis of the 2017 CPC-ONS-UUK SoGIS survey dat

Title: Configuring the storage and return flow processes of reusable packaging for battery cells: A design science study of a global battery cell manufacturer Author: Linnea Sjöberg Supervisor: Joakim Kembro, Division of Engineering Logistics, Faculty of Engineering, Lund University. Problem Description: As reusable packaging is becoming increasingly popular, the already existing warehouses need t

Few studies have investigated the real-life outcomes of interdisciplinary multimodal pain rehabilitation programs (IMMRP) for chronic pain. This study has four aims: investigate effect sizes (ES); analyse correlation patterns of outcome changes; define a multivariate outcome measure; and investigate whether the clinical self-reported presentation pre-IMMRP predicts the multivariate outcome. To thi

A search for leptoquark pair production decaying into te-t¯e+ or tμ-t¯μ+ in final states with multiple leptons is presented. The search is based on a dataset of pp collisions at s=13TeV recorded with the ATLAS detector during Run 2 of the Large Hadron Collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 139 fb-1. Four signal regions, with the requirement of at least three light leptons (electron

Background: Virtual Reality cognitive behavioral therapy (VR-CBT) has proven to be an effective treatment method for paranoia and anxiety in psychosis. However, it is unknown, which individuals benefit most from VR-CBT. Previous studies examined factors affecting the treatment effect of regular CBTp, including illness duration, paranoia, depression, and pre-therapy avoidance behaviors, but results

Warmer temperatures and the combined effects of wind and water erosion leads to serious soil loss. Identifying the contribution of different drivers to wind and water compound erosion can improve soil erosion management in the watershed. Accordingly, we calculated the erosion energy based on energy theory and applied the mutation test and trend analysis to explore environmental drivers, runoff, an

A parent’s life threating illness and death can significantly affect their children's wellbeing in both the short and long term. Support from professionals is recommended when parents lack the ability to help children cope with loss, bereavement, and grief. The overall aim of this dissertation was to illuminate professionals’ encounters with children of a seriously ill or deceased parent and to ex

Background: This study assessed the cost-effectiveness of proton beam therapy (PBT) compared to conventional radiotherapy (CRT) for treating patients with brain tumors in Sweden. Methods: Data from a longitudinal non-randomized study performed between 2015 and 2020 was used, and included adult patients with brain tumors, followed during treatment and through a one-year follow-up. Clinical and demo
