Globally 884 million people depend on unsafe drinking water, of which 159 million depend on untreated surface water (WHO, 2017). In Tanzania 44% of the popula- tion lack access to safe drinking water (WaterAid, 2017). Women and children in the small city of Chonyonyo, in Karagwe district are walking several hours a day for contaminated drinking water. According to a study, carried out in Tanzani
As of January 1, 2005, it will no longer be allowed under international trade rules for one country to impose import quotas on textiles and garments on another country. It is widely expected that the expiration of the 1974 Multifiber Arrangement will lead to a drastic re-shuffle of garment production and trade patterns. Where a number of countries were previously guaranteed a share of the European
Diffusion tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI or DTI) is an imaging technique that is sensitive to the diffusion movement of water contained in tissue. It is used to quantify parameters such as the diffusivity and its directionality. Because diffusion is intimately connected to the tissue microarchitecture DTI is one of the few techniques that can quantify tissue microstructure non-invasivel
Schizophrenia is a disease highly characterized by a disturbed perception of reality, where delusions often generate misinterpretations of the individuals perceptions. Emotion processing has been widely documented within schizophrenia, which above all has demonstrated a reduction regarding the Theory of mind. Also well documented is that individuals with schizophrenia depict a reduced perceptual a
The aim of this paper is to examine the impact of overweight and obesity on early retirement. Data is gathered from the Survey of Health, Ageing and Retirement in Europe (SHARE) database and on this data a linear probability model is applied, using both a Pooled Ordinary Least Squares (POLS) and a Fixed Effect (FE) strategy. In addition, separate regressions are run for current and lagged Body Mas
This chapter describes the background for, and implementation of, the Barnahus model within the Nordic countries. It highlights the core elements of the model and the specifics of the Nordic welfare state context relating to the child welfare and criminal justice systems. A contextual and comparative perspective is used to shed light on how the model is shaped by the legal and institutional contexThis chapter describes the background for, and implementation of, the Barnahus model within the Nordic countries.

What is the significance of regulations of job contracts and wages when it comes to young people’s access to labour market? This is an issue that has attracted and continues to attract a great deal of interest in both research and politics. Proposals for deregulated employment protection and reduced entry-level pay recur regularly in public debate. In our view it is incomprehensiblehow sectors of

The European Security Strategy adopted by the European Council in 2003 states that forging strategic partnerships with key actors is a priority in EU foreign policy. In 2007 such a strategic partnership was established with Brazil, based on shared fundamental values and principles such as democracy, rule of law, promotion of human rights and basic freedoms and a market-based economy. Both partners
Motivated by the rising importance of today’s environmental issues and more specifically the role of energy conservation policies, the current study investigates the Granger causal relationship between energy consumption and economic growth in eight European countries. Using a large dataset that overall spans from 1800-2009 the study employs the Toda-Yamamoto procedure and cointegration analysis w
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has come to prominence as a priority for policy makers and healthcare professionals. There are many well-described guidelines on how healthcare professionals should handle AMR. However, professional practices are sometimes different from what the guidelines prescribe. Based on a non-scientific case, the article explores and discusses healthcare professionals’ practic
The wide variety of physical phenomena, such as motion of objects, reaction among chemical substances, electricity flow in a circuit can be described by equations with quantities that vary along time.The rate at which a quantity is changing with respect to its independent variable (time), is represented by its derivative. Thus, these phenomena are modeled by equations with differential variables Adaptive multistep methods have been widely used to solve initial value problems. These ordinary differential equations (ODEs) may arise from semi-discretization of time-dependent partial differential equations(PDEs) or may combine with some algebraic equations to represent a differential algebraic equations (DAEs).In this thesis we study the initialization of multistep methods and parametrize som

The introduction of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems has dramatically transformed wireless communication systems, in particular in the Fifth Generation (5G) New Radio (NR) systems, fundamentally changing how signals are transmitted and received. MIMO technology deploys numerous antennas to transmit and receive multiple data streams simultaneously. The presence of obstructions and scat
Recently, there has been an increase in apartments with a large number of inhabitants, i.e., high residential density. This is partly due to a housing shortage in general but also increased migration, particularly in suburbs of major cities. This paper specifies issues that might be caused by high residential density by investigating the technical parameters influenced in Swedish apartments that a
