The article focuses on lifestyle entrepreneurship, characterised by a balancing work between personal lifestyle motives and economic motives. It builds on a qualitative study of business owners who have realized a life dream of starting a countryside business in the tourism and hospitality industry in Sweden.

Extensive measurements of soil surface (including vegetation cover) CO2 efflux were carried out on 80 positions at four different forest sites (Sweden, Germany, Czech Republic and Italy) using a closed dynamic chamber technique. The period of measurement was 4-5 consecutive days per site. Two approaches were used to analyze the measured data, the Q(10) parameter and the Arrhenius relationship. Bas
Economic crises directly and indirectly affect the financial health of museums. Despite this reality, however, analysing the impact of the economic cycle on museums has not generated much interest among researchers; to date published studies on the recent financial crisis and its reverberations in the museum sector are rare. This article, after acknowledging this lack of research, discusses specif
Access to reliable electricity is essential for delivering safe and effective healthcare. However, many rural healthcare facilities in Mozambique operate without power or experience frequent and prolonged outages. This thesis investigates the potential of repurposed end-of-life (EoL) lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) as an energy storage solution in such contexts. Based on fieldwork in local settings
Video conferencing is a very bandwidth sensitive application, if the available bandwidth is to low to handle the send rate of the media, packages will be lost in the network and thus the conference will be disrupted. Axis Communications would like to know which techniques are used today to ensure optimized bandwidth usage and as good quality as possible during a video conference even if the networ
Forskningsfråga - Vilken betydelse har språkbruket mellan medarbetare för deras upplevelse av psykologisk trygghet? Syfte - Med utgångspunkt i psykologisk trygghet och med hjälp av teorier om social underminering och kommunikativ anpassningsteroi, undersöker denna uppsats vilken betydelse medarbetarnas språkbruk har för utvecklingen av en psykologisk trygghet på arbetsplatser i Sverige. Detta då This thesis investigates the significance of the language used between colleagues for their experience of psychological safety in Swedish workplaces. Utilising theories of social undermining and communicative accommodation theory, the study addresses the lack of knowledge about employees' contributions to developing psychological safety and the importance of language in this context. The stu
The average build year for existing multi-family buildings in Sweden is1959, circa 95 % of building built before 1960 uses natural ventilation and circa 45 % of these have failed the obligatory ventilation control that exists in Sweden. In the EU buildings stand for 30 % of the total energy usage and the aim is to get buildings to a near zero energy building. The aim of this thesis is therefore to

WEE is defined as the women’s ability to independently earn and control their income, seize economic opportunities and exercise their agency. Bui
The thesis aims to explore subjective experiences of everyday occupation, social interaction and the view of the worker role among people with psychiatric disabilities(PD), while also addressing the importance of day centre attendance. The thesis consists of one qualitative study, exploring which characteristics in everyday occupation provide meaning to people with PD, and three quantitative studi
The implementation of new treatment methods in social work practice is warranted. Moreover, little is known about professionals' attitudes toward the introduction of evidence-based practices into their communities. Therefore,this article reports on the implementation of a Swedish research project that evaluated Multisystemic Therapy (MST). All investigating social workers in a community-based soci
Land degradation, as a threat to smallholders in the tropics, attracts less attention than other global challenges. In addition, gaps between scientific understandings of land degradation and international policy regimes are problematic. We identify the three most significant debates including their different policy implications: desertification in the Sahel, nutrient depletion in Africa, and rura
The normative implications of sustainable development mean that different understandings of how sustainability should be achieved will either facilitate or put at risk different values associated with economic, environmental and social aspects of sustainability. By a qualitative analysis of Swedish fishery legislation documents, we analyse and outline the consequences of two different and competin
Background: Vacations at international nightlife resorts represent an important but also risky element in the lives of youth in many countries. There is an urgent need for evaluating the role played by bars and nightclubs in producing and reducing risks; this task is important, especially at upcoming nightlife resorts with limited experience in managing young partygoers from other countries. Metho
The Nordic Grid facility (NorduGrid [1]) came into operation during summer 2002 when the Scandinavian ATLAS HEP group started to use the Grid for the ATLAS Data Challenges (DC) and was thus the first Grid ever contributing to an ATLAS production. Since then, the Grid facility has been in continuous 24/7 operation. NorduGrid is being used by a growing set of active users from various scientific are
This case study investigates the implementation of a free-choice market system in community mental health services using the example of day centres for people with psychiatric disabilities. It was conducted in a major city that was about to implement a free-choice market system due to a new legislation that made it feasible. Eighteen semi-structured interviews were conducted. Agents situated in di
Background: The loss of carbon (C) from agricultural soils has been, in part, attributed to tillage, a common practice providing a number of benefits to farmers. The promotion of less intensive tillage practices and no tillage (NT) (the absence of mechanical soil disturbance) aims to mitigate negative impacts on soil quality and to preserve soil organic carbon (SOC). Several reviews and meta-analy
Vietnam is undertaking health financing reform with a view to achieve universal coverage of health insurance within the coming years. To date, around half of the population is covered with some type of health insurance or prepayment. This review applies a conceptual framework of health financing to provide a coherent assessment of the reforms to date with respect to a set of key policy objectives
