This thesis is a general overlook on the societal benefits of walking infrastructure. It is divided between a literature review; concerning what makes people walk, what benefits this might give and how to place a value on these factors, and an empirical part; researching how evaluating value, and by other means quantifying effects, is used and can be used in the planning of walking infrastructure.
Dredging operations in ports, rivers, and waterways are essential for maintaining navigable depths, but they result in large volumes of dredged sediments (DS) that are often unsuitable for immediate reuse due to their high moisture content, low strength, and contamination. Stabilization and solidification (S/S) techniques are widely employed to improve the geotechnical properties of DS, making theDredging operations in ports, rivers, and waterways are essential for maintaining navigable depths, but they result in large volumes of dredged sediments (DS) that are often unsuitable for immediate reuse due to their high moisture content, low strength, and contamination.

Local parties are a powerful political factor in many Swedish municipalities but haven't gained as much attention as new parties on the national level.

The Nordic country of Sweden portrays itself as a leader in sustainable development and human rights advocacy. However, the expansion of what is portrayed as “green” mining activities in Sami territories creates cumulative pressure on traditional livelihoods like reindeer husbandry, which raises questions about the sustainability narrative.

The Iberian lynx was once recognized as the world’s most threatened felid, but due to the implementation of a conservation programme and the creation of captive breeding centres, its numbers have considerably increased. With the annual production of new individuals in these reproduction centres, as well as the inevitable aging of past breeders, a different problem emerged: the hoarding of non-repr
Social capital can be a vital resource for entrepreneurs but so far research has not addressed how it is accessed through online communication channels. This paper presents a new way of sourcing network information about Swedish entrepreneurs and consequently explores whether rural entrepreneurs utilize online social capital as much as entrepreneurs from urban or metropolitan areas do.

: My paper studies the nominal system in a dialect of Småland, spoken in Urshult,as it has been coded and transcribed in a volume by Swea Johansson, a native speaker of this dialect. In this variety, a large portion of the weak feminines, in modern Swedish roughly nouns ending -a, for example penna ’pencil’, instead end in -e, penne ’pencil’. Furthermore, the definite form frequently ends in -na,

This paper seeks to expand our lens on educational desires, parenting and shifting notions of childhood and learning in East Asia and beyond. While not explicitly centered on migration, I suggest that the educational mobilities needs to be understood in relation to a growing tension between parents’ desire to achieve conventional success and the desire to nurture the child’s emotional well-being.
