Våra stadscentrum och dess utveckling, inte minst vad gäller handel är en ständigt aktuell och omdebatterad fråga. Senast var det representanter för våra livsmedelshandelsföretag som var ute och förordade kommunerna att släppa reglering av vem som får etablera sig var, låt marknaden styra var mantrat (Dagligvarunytt 2022a, b och c).

The research areas remain the same, but our perspective on them has changed. This is how consumption researchers Carys Egan-Wyer and Emma Samsioe describe the development in retail research over the past ten years. “In one of our recent reports, we call it 'Retail as unusual.' There is no longer a normal state in trade, no 'Business as usual.' Everything has become more uncertain,” says Carys Egan

This article is over 5 years old, and the information may therefore be outdated. By 2023 the University is to have reduced its CO2 emissions by half, according to the new sustainability plan. Things look promising right now due to Covid-19 – there will be a radical reduction this year as air travel is the biggest CO2 villain. The number of flights booked between April and October 2020 fell by 97 p

The University is growing and developing, which entails the need for changes of campus. At the moment, around 35% of the University’s premises are under refurbishment, planning or reconstruction. As this brings major changes affecting the entire University, the work on campus development needs to be reinforced. A campus development office, with responsibility for campus development issues and incl

In order to achieve the 1.5-degree target set by the Paris Agreement, massive cuts in carbon emissions are needed. For the EU, this requires a reduction of household carbon footprints from 2015 of almost 70% by 2030 and over 90% by 2050. Too often, climate policies are not placed within a broader social context and policy makers neglect to see that welfare policies are vital to climate mitigation.
