Human trafficking, also known as modern day slavery, is a grave violation of the human rights. Approximately 40,5 million people are every year being trafficked around the world. But trafficking is not only a violation of the human rights – it is also a criminal and security concern. Trafficking can, among other things, urge conflict by enabeling extremist and armed groups to increase their capabi

Det finns idag nationella målsättningar om att öka andelen resor som genomförs med cykel och arbetet sker bland annat genom förbättrad infrastruktur. En del av infrastrukturen som idag anses vara bristfällig är cykelparkering vid bostaden, vilket somliga kommuner börjat reglera genom att ställa krav vid nybyggnation. Men trots att arbetet med frågan blir vanligare finns bristfällig kunskap kring bThere are national goals in Sweden for increasing the proportion of trips made by bicycle. Many believe that this partly can be achieved by improving bicycle infrastructure and recently parking facilities have been gaining more attention in bicycle planning. Most bicycle trips start or end at home and this is also the location where many bikes are parked a majority of the time. However, there is a

This thesis departs from scientific literature which suggests to “have one fewer child” as the most effective individual lifestyle choice to reduce one’s contribution to (and even actively fight against) climate change. By employing critical discourse analysis of this literature, I explore how childbearing and carbon emissions have been coupled, and what the implications of this phenomenon are. Th

The aim of this essay was to understand young people´s approach towards the digital environment during the covid-19 pandemic, when their physical education relocated into the digital environment and their homes. A form of teaching they have never faced before, which can be equated as almost an experiment. This one-year master thesis includes a qualitative study with semi-structured interviews. Eig

För privatpersoner är ett fastighetsköp något speciellt då man endast gör denna affären någon eller några gånger i sitt liv. Köpet rör stora belopp och därför är reglerna om ansvarsfördelningen vid fel i fastighet viktiga. Tidigare ansvarade säljaren bara för vad han direkt utfäst i avtalet. Det var köparen som hade hela felansvaret oavsett om felet var dolt eller inte. Med tiden förändrades regleFor private individuals real estate purchase is a rare experience, individuals make this purchase maybe once or few times in their life. The purchase includes a large amount of money and that’s why the rules on the division of responsibilities in case of defects in real estate are important. In days gone by, the seller was only responsible for what is explicitly stated in the convene agreement. It

I mötet med EDI i ensembleundervisning under VFU väcktes ett intresse kring EDI samt om dess möjligheter och begränsningar i ensemblesammanhang. Studien syftar till att undersöka dessa aspekter; upplevelsen och innebörden av instrumentet samt hur instrumentet fungerar i ensembleundervisning på gymnasiets estetiska program. Litteraturgenomgången behandlar den musikteknologiska utvecklingen i skolanDuring our internship we experienced EDI in ensemble teaching and our interest about EDI:s possibilities and limitations in ensemble arose. The purpose of the study aims to investigate; the experience and meaning of the instrument and how the instrument works in ensemble teaching in the high school's music program. The chapter Literature Review treats the evolution of music technology in the s

Games are not a new method of teaching in education; however, their impact is not well understood in Entrepreneurial Education. These two concepts have been merged in the past with mostly quantitative approaches viewing existing structures. This study contributes to the combination by inductively elaborating on a gamified experience (The Mount Everest Challenge) by presenting the perception of stu

This study investigates the role being taken by international civil society organizations in Nigeria, how they have contributed to and their efficacy to upholding human right values. Also, the work AI and HRW have been doing to protect human rights in Nigeria and the different strategies employed by these organizations in protecting human rights. The international civil societies in this study are

Disclosure of Intelligence information and information regarding Intelligence operations can have both advantages and disadvantages. In a descriptive case study of three military operations against suspected underwater activities, the thesis examines, based on a content analysis, how these operations have been framed based on the concept of the intelligence dimension specifically constructed for t

This study investigated whether the emotional attitudes a person experiences toward another individual influence episodic memory for items associated with that individual. To examine this, we measured recognition memory for word pairs that had been previously presented overlaid on images of celebrities, with multiple images per celebrity. The participants were afterwards asked to report experience

Följande studie har ämnat undersöka i vilken grad beteendefrekvens förväxlas med uppfattad kompetens, samt ifall ansvarsutkrävande (accountability) kan ha en påverkan på sambandet. Följande hypoteser bildades: H1: Individer som exponeras för hög beteendefrekvens kommer att tillskriva högre kompetens till den bedömda personen jämfört med individer som exponeras för låg beteendefrekvens. Samt, H2: DThe following study aimed to explore the extent of which behaviour frequency is confused with competence, and furthermore if the manipulation of perceived accountability has any effect on the relationship. From this, the following two hypotheses were formed, H1: Individuals exposed to high behaviour frequency will attribute higher competence to the person being judged, compared to those who are ex

This bachelor thesis was conducted on a company that for various reasons has chosen to be anonymous. The company works internationally and specializes in industrial machinery within the food industry. Today, maintenance on the machines are performed based on scheduled periods of time, based on the expected remaining useful life. Because of this, failure may occur before these planned services are

This master thesis project focuses on establishing a synthetic method with the prospect of developing new antibacterial agents. Due to the increment of resistant strains of bacteria throughout the world, this area of research is well motivated. The nine-carbon sugar - sialic acid - is a highly prevalent communication molecule on human cell surfaces. It signals that the cells are endogenous and not

Options play a significant role in the financial market. The pricing of the options is a prevailing topic in academia. The Black and Scholes (Black & Scholes, 1973) model, on the one hand, was applauded by its simplicity and ease of use, on the other hand, it was criticized by the practitioner and academics because of the over-idealized constant volatility and underlying distribution assumptio

Denna litteraturstudie syftar till att sammanfatta den prekambriska berggrunden och dess geologiska utveckling i norra Skåne. Studien bygger på tidigare publicerat material, primärt tre av SGU:s berggrundskartor: Af 127, 155 och 181. Dessa visar berggrunden i området nordost, sydväst och nordväst om Kristianstad. För att kunna sätta in denna berggrund i ett större sammanhang har även andra publikaThis literature study aims to summarize the Precambrian bedrock and its geological development in northern Scania. The study is based on previously published material, primarily three of SGU’s bedrock maps: Af 127, 155 and 181. These show the bedrock in the area northeast, southwest and northwest of Kristianstad. In order to place this bedrock in a broader context, other publications dealing with
