This thesis draws upon social movement theory to explore the impact of the Ni Una Menos protest in Chile. In October 2016 thousands of people took the streets of the capital Santiago to protest the wave of recent femicides in Chile. The Ni Una Menos protest gained widespread attention and mobilized activists from all divisions in the women’s movement. The material of this case study was gathered t
The Danes’ have the highest municipal waste generation per capita in the European Union and it is estimated that 40% of residual waste is biowaste. Fortunately, it is possible to address environmental pressures and counteract resource loss from incineration by the process of bio-gasification of collected biowaste in Denmark. However, despite efforts to reduce barriers of convenience and accessibil
Orden trygghet och studiero återfinns i Skollagen (SFS: 2010:800). Som en elev som inte kände trygghet under min egen skolgång och nu med en ämneslärarutbildning i musik i ryggen har mitt fokus hamnat på lärarens uppgift och möjligheter att skapa trygghet och studiero för elever, och mer specifikt för de elever som jag kommer undervisa i musik. Med den ingången är studiens syfte att undersöka vad The words trygghet and studiero (to feel secure and have peace and quiet to study) can be found in the Swedish education act. During my own school years I was bullied and felt unsafe. I now have a master of education in music and my focus has shifted from a student’s perspective to a teacher’s perspective. With this study I therefore want to focus on how teachers can create a peaceful and secure e
There is a longstanding debate between environmentalists and economists regarding the possibility to combine economic growth and sustainability. So far, the neoliberal economists’ argumentation for a capitalist economic system with everlasting economic growth has been the dominating paradigm. In Sweden, one group of environmentalists able to influence policymaking without being actual decision-mak
Although the coronavirus pandemic has highlighted the importance of easily accessible medicines, a reactive pharmaceutical industry and the effects of how the same industry sector is regulated, the EU’s pharmaceutical regulations still have apparent flaws. Therefore, this WPR study intends to visualize how EC, EFPIA, and CEO have tried to maintain or undermine these regulations over time. To enabl
Using music as a tool for teaching a foreign language has been shown to positively affect the language learning process (Balčytytė-Kurtinienė, 2018; Cañete García et al., 2022; Heidari- Shahreza & Moinzadeh, 2012), and this essay suggests that authentic English songs can be used in the teaching of EFL in lower-secondary school in Sweden to efficiently meet many aspects of the syllabus. Therefo
This thesis examines the challenges that women human rights defenders (WHRDs) in Bangladesh are experiencing in a period of shrinking civic space. It further focuses on how perceptions guide their chosen strategies. Applying political opportunity theory, drawing from social movements research, it explores the structural changes in the political system and how it impacts civil society action. Thus,
När barn tvångsvårdas på grund av brister i hemmiljön enligt Lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga (LVU) är avsikten att de ska återförenas med sina föräldrar när grunden för vården upphör enligt den s.k. återföreningsprincipen. Strävandet kan tillgodoses när domstol fattar beslut om hemtagning enligt 21 § LVU, varpå vården upphör och barnet får flytta tillbaka till sina föräldrThe principle of reunification is the guiding principle when a child is taken care of in a family home in accordance with the Care of Young Persons Act (LVU). This means that the purpose is that a child shall be reunited with its parents once the conditions that founded the decision no longer exist. Hence, the court can decide to end the care based on 21 § LVU, whereafter the child moves home to i
Personer som flyr förföljelse och dylikt gör det i många fall utan ID-handlingar eller andra nödvändiga dokument som kan stödja deras asylberättelse. På grund av detta präglas asylmål i regel av omfattande bevissvårigheter, vilket resulterar i att sökandens utsaga får central betydelse vid bevisvärderingen. Detta kan vara problematiskt då asylsökanden ofta möter hinder i asylprocessen som försvåraPeople fleeing persecution and other unpleasantries often do so without ID or other necessary documents to support their asylum story. Due to this, asylum cases are usually characterised by their extensive evidentiary difficulties, resulting in the applicant’s testimony being of central importance in the evidence assessment. This can be problematic as asylum seekers often face obstacles in the asy
Det civilprocessuella regelverket ska slita tvister mellan enskilda rättssubjekt. Härvid ska regelverket erbjuda enskilda en möjlighet att realisera sitt rättsanspråk och därigenom erhålla rättsskydd. För att kunna göra detta ska regelverket se till att processen genomförs på ett säkert, snabbt och billigt vis. Detta kan också uttryckas som att vissa krav på rättssäkerhet och processekonomi ställsThe procedural rules within civil law are supposed to resolve disputes between individual legal entities. To this effect the rules are supposed to offer individuals a possibility to realize their legal claims and thereby receive legal protection. In order to do this the procedural rules need to ensure that civil law cases are conducted in a reliable, quick and inexpensive manner. Another way to ex
Increasing sustainability and combating climate change are one of the key objectives of the European Union’s policies. Adoption of the European Green Deal and commitment to different international treaties and programmes are affecting to various fields of EU law. In competition law, it has been established that the enhancement of environmental objectives must be considered also when assessing hori
Recurring natural and man-made disasters are resulting in an increasing number of displaced people who need to be provided with urgent accommodation. Due to insufficient legal regulations and effective construction methods, refugees are often located in conditions defined as ‘temporary’, offering low quality of living conditions, degrading social environment and destructive impact on the city land
To continue the development of novel therapeutics to treat bladder cancer, a reliable model for preclinical testing of treatments and studying of the disease mechanism is essential. Ex vivo culturing of precision cut tumor slices (PCTS) provides a model that can retain the tumor architecture and its tumor microenvironment including the immune cell compartment, but data on PCTS based on bladder tum
Agricultural biomass to energy holds promise for the sustainability of energy production and positive reduction of CO2 emission. This thesis explores the potential of rice husk as a sustainable energy source for electricity and process heat generation focusing on a rice mill in Sri Lanka. It utilizes advanced thermochemical conversion technologies specifically separate reactors for pyrolysis and g
In pursuit of energy efficiency and sustainable development, goals have been set by the EU and Sweden to improve the energy performance of buildings and reduce their environmental impact. Renovating the existing building stock is a path to achieving the energy and climate goals. This study investigates and analyses various retrofitting options for multifamily residential buildings in Skåne, Sweden
Browning of water has increased over the last couple of decades on the northern hemisphere. Research show that possible drivers for this change are land use change, climate change, increased precipitation and increased temperatures. Browning of water can affect important interactions in the aquatic ecosystem which in turn can affect the whole structure of the ecosystem. Furthermore the loss of a t
Food and the feminine self have always had a profoundly complex relationship. It has been the site of gender oppression, corporeal discipline and more recently, self-pleasure and creativity for women. It is clear that material world foodwork has provided women with a resource to navigate gender ideals, whether from a more traditional or contemporary perspective; this idea extends to foodwork in th
With an increase in temperature (T) and a change in precipitation (P) patterns due to climate change, global conditions for tree growth are changing and shifting. While some areas experience an increase in P, favoring tree growth, many regions are also predicted to show a decrease in P, leading to trends of desertification. This study examines the projected climate change in Nigeria, located in Su
