Children born to occupying soldiers during or after conflicts are in many ways an extraordinarily vulnerable population. These so-called children born of war (CBOW) commonly inherit the stigma of transgression and foreignness from their respective parents and face discrimination in post-conflict societies. Their specific vulnerabilities, though, emerge from multiple overlapping factors: the needs
Uppsatsen undersöker lämpligheten att införa storskalig miljöförstöring, i form av ekocid, som ett femte internationellt brott i Romstadgan för internationella brottmålsdomstolen som antogs i Rom 1998. Undersökningen görs i förhållande till Romstadgans syfte och målsättning och i förhållande till de brott som utgör kärnan av Romstadgan. Kärnbrotten utgörs av folkmord, brott mot mänskligheten, krigThis essay examines the possibility to make environmental destruction an international crime by including ecocide as a fifth crime against peace in the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court adopted in Rome in 1998. The issue is examinated in relation to the purpose and objective of the Statue and in relations to the core crimes. The core crimes; crime of genocide, crimes against humanit
The study has shown that BIM is used extensively throughout the entire construction process, with clear benefits and optimizations. The broad usage of BIM shows that all areas have streamlined and become less costly. BIM is well established in the construction process with an exception for the facility management phase. The benefits in the facility management area are well studied but not introduc
I mogna industrier prioriteras ofta verkningsgrad och processen snarare än själva produkten. Detta innebär att dessa industrier anpassar sig långsamt när de externa förhållandena skiftar. Exempel på sådan industri är Sveriges köttindustri. Denna präglas av stor klimatpåverkan, även stora mängder matsvinn. Nya teknologier undersökes i nuläget för att skärpa detta svinn; exempel på sådan teknologi äThe competitive landscape mature industries find themselves in tends to make them enforce practices that ruthlessly focus on efficiency and process. This narrow focus makes them slow to adapt to changes in the external environment in which they operate. One such case is the Swedish meat industry. Like many industries, there are downsides involved with meat production and for meat a significant one
This Bachelor’s degree project investigates how to create a modular chair system. It should let the consumer combine different parts to create a chair that fits their home, style and needs. The focus is on how a low number of parts can be used in different ways to create differentcombinations. It should also be easy to replace and recycle all parts when needed. This document shows the full design
This essay explores the lived experiences of parents of children with neurodevelopmental disabilities in relation to institutional interactions. Using a narrative inquiry approach (Clandinin & Connelly, 2000), 13 semi-structured interviews were conducted and analysed to investigate emotional and moral dimensions of the participants' stories. Drawing on Kittays (1999) ethic of care, the
Experience of abuse as a life event is common among men in a psychiatric care context. Systematically charting life events and abuse plays a central role within psychiatric and mental health nursing and could improve the understanding of the patient’s life situation. The aim of the study was to explore the life course of male psychiatric patients who had experienced domestic abuse as victims and a
INTRODUCTION: Future physicians must develop the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage challenging patient communication. To design linked meaningful learning activities, perspectives from students and teachers need to be taken into account as well as students' previous knowledge. Aiming to better understand how this knowledge can be acquired through patient simulation, we examined
The use and significance of timber structures are on the rise, especially thanks to crosslaminated timber (CLT). This engineered wood product is manufactured by stacking multiple layers of wood lamellae, each oriented perpendicularly to the one below it, and then bonding them with adhesives to form a floor or wall panel. Timber, as a building material, presents potential environmental benefits ove
More than ever, Machine Learning (ML) as a subfield of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is on the rise and is finding its way into safety-critical software applications. However, when it comes to quality assurance (QA) and trustworthiness, integrating ML models into software comes with challenges that may not be apparent at first glance. The European Union (EU) aims to tackle this problem with new reg
In an increasingly mobile world, transience is becoming the norm. Sustainable community food initiatives, therefore, must organise to withstand high turnover of volunteers. Using a case study of the United Kingdom's National Union of Students' food growing scheme in universities, this paper aims to map the causes and effects of short-term, irregular, and low participation using a causal loop diagr
In this special session we wish to critique and reimagine the anthropocentric present. In contemporary consumerist society (Schmitt et al., 2022), the global “free market” is presented as the solution to the environmental and climate urgency through pillars like unlimited growth, responsibilized consumers, and not least, the domination of Nature (e.g. Hornborg 2019). There are alternatives, but thIn this special session we wish to critique and reimagine the anthropocentric present.

This paper explores the evolving landscape of regional innovation policy, focusing on the interplay between traditional cluster policies and emerging transformative agendas. Over the past decade, policy initiatives aimed at fostering place-based, collaborative innovation have proliferated. However, questions arise regarding the adequacy of existing policy tools in accommodating newer, transformati

Background: With a trend toward de-escalation of axillary surgery in breast cancer, prediction models incorporating imaging modalities can help reassess the need for surgical axillary staging. Although mammography is routinely performed for breast cancer imaging, its potential in nodal staging remains underutilized. This study aims to employ advancements in deep learning (DL) to comprehensively ev
Background: Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is an effective treatment for depression with potential transient cognitive side effects. However, subjective memory impairment can extend over a long period after ECT. Objectives: This study aimed to assess potential risk factors for long-term subjective memory impairment 6 months after ECT and to explore if the associations are mediated by depressive s
Risk management in land-use planning often boils down to practical decision-making situations, such as deciding on safe distances between residential buildings and other types of developments and dangerous goods transportation routes or hazardous industries. The practical approaches to managing risk in land-use planning vary across countries, ranging from prescriptive regulations on managing risk
Monitoring a microservice system may bring a lot of benefits to development teams such as early detection of run-time errors and various performance anomalies. In this study, we explore deep learning (DL) solutions for detection of anomalous system's behavior based on collected monitoring data that consists of applications' and systems' performance metrics. The study is conducted in a collaboratio
Objective: To investigate the effects of fever therapy compared with no fever therapy in a wide population of febrile adults. Design: Systematic review with meta-analyses and trial sequential analyses of randomised clinical trials. Data sources: CENTRAL, BIOSIS, CINAHL, MEDLINE, Embase, LILACS, Scopus, and Web of Science Core Collection, searched from their inception to 2 July 2021. Eligibility cr
