The proportion of unionised blue-collar and white-collar workers fell in 2022 after an increase in the pandemic years of 2020 and 2021. Despite this, Sweden has the world's second highest level of unionisation. This is shown in the report 'The Swedish model from a Nordic perspective: unionisation and the new basic agreement' by Professor Anders Kjellberg for the think tank Arena Idé. The share of

For generations, Indigenous and riverine communities in the Amazon have relied on deep ecological knowledge to live in harmony with the rainforest. But, as climate disasters reshape the woodlands, local expertise is often overlooked in environmental policies and scientific studies. A new research project aims to change that. In 2023 and 2024, the Amazon faced severe droughts. Rivers dried up, cutt

Underground fungi play a central role in the fragile ecosystems of atoll islands. The unique symbiotic relationship between these fungi and rainforest trees is vital for the restoration of nature and ultimately for the survival of coral reefs. New research shows how fungi help nutrients to move between the forest and the sea. Palmyra Atoll is a remote and uninhabited cluster of small islands halfw

Despite efforts to overcome public transport barriers, major challenges remain. The rapid transition to a more transport-efficient society also includes digitization and new forms of mobility. This creates a growing concern about widening exclusion and digital divides and new research is needed. The new research project aims to provide a deeper understanding of potential obstacles and conditions i

We all remember the disruptive boys in the class. The ones who shoplifted, got into playground fights and started smoking early. Some of these boys were quite simply displaying normal defiance and are now living a good and stable life as adults. But for a few of them, these were warning signs of risky behaviour that later led them on to a life of crime. Almost all teenagers have a tendency to brea
