The path to achieving food security is complex due to the linkage between human health and environmental impacts. Alternative approaches to industrial monoculture agriculture, such as agroforestry, are increasingly being explored due to the variety of forest foods it provides and the environmental benefits associated with its use. I conducted a meta-analysis of 15 published studies that reported 3
The global tourism industry faces significant sustainability challenges, with environmental degradation and social inequities threatening its long-term viability. This is particularly critical for developing urban centres like Lagos, Nigeria, where rapid tourism growth has intensified environmental and social pressures. This thesis aimed to gain a better understanding of the role of Small and Medi
Healthcare is facing several upcoming challenges, such as individuals tending to become unhealthier, which is the cause of many chronic diseases and lack of healthcare professionals, resulting in decreased efficiency in healthcare. A shift to preventive healthcare could reverse this trend by focusing on improving the living habits of the population. Internet of Things technology has enabled tools
Önskan att ta risk och analysera nyttan är en av de viktigaste aspekterna som kan beaktas i personliga beslut. Senare studier har visat att den egna uppfattningen om tid och personlighetsdrag påverkar uppfattningen av den upplevda nyttan. I denna studie användes ett frågeformulär av 162 frågor.

Brine disposal remains one of the most significant environmental challenges associated with desalination, driving the need for sustainable technologies such zero liquid discharge (ZLD) systems. Among emerging ZLD techniques, membrane distillation crystallization (MDCr) offers a promising approach by integrating water recovery with salt crystallization. In MDCr, a hydrophobic membrane separates wat
Det akuta klimathot som mänskligheten står inför kräver insatser av hela det globala samfundet. Inom den internationella rätten hanteras utsläpp av växthusgaser genom en växelverkan mellan flera olika rättsområden. I ljuset av havens betydelse för planetens klimatreglering spelar den internationella havs-rätten och UNCLOS en viktig roll i att mildra klimatförändringarna. Med utgångspunkt i rättsdoThe urgency of the climate change crisis calls for global efforts. Mitigation of GHG-pollution within international law consists of the interaction of multiple legal areas. Given the importance of the oceans in climate regulation, the international law of the sea and UNCLOS are important in protecting the marine environment. By the use of the legal dogmatic method, the essay seeks to examine the o

Syftet med denna masteruppsats är att undersöka människors upplevelser av att delta i flyktingmottagandet i Malmö under hösten 2015. Uppsatsen studerar motiveringar till varför volontärer beslutat sig för att hjälpa. Dessa analyseras främst genom Marcel Mauss teori om gåvosystem: volontärarbete, eller att hjälpa, ses som en gåva i uppsatsen. Motiveringarna analyseras också genom Erving Goffmans drThe purpose of this master’s thesis is to explore the experience of people who helped in the refugee reception in the city of Malmö, Sweden, in the fall of 2015. The thesis delves into the reasons and motivations to why volunteers decided to help.

The spread of omotenashi has been growing somewhat rapidly for the past few years outside of Japan, notably to the region of South East Asia such as in Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam and Thailand. This spread might be contributed to the widely expected positive impacts of omotenashi such as its capability to improve the overall level of customers’ satisfaction through the empowerment of the service
The purpose of this paper is to measure living standards for the population of Chocó, Colombia, using four waves of the DHSurveys between 1990 and 2005. Recent maternal history allowed the construction of a pooled dataset of 3.055 children and 779 mothers. The concept of living standards is measured as the ability to ensure child and marriage survival subject to short term economic stress, which i

Genom en reform år 1989 infördes de nuvarande reglerna om straffmätning och påföljdsbestämning i 29 och 30 kap. brottsbalken. Enligt 29 kap. 1 § brottsbalken ska straff bestämmas inom ramen för den tillämpliga straffskalan, utifrån brottet eller den samlade brottslighetens straffvärde. En grundläggande tanke med reformen var att den skulle främja förutsebarhet och enhetlighet i rättstillämpningen.
