The COVID-19 pandemic and the policies introduced to curb its spread exacerbated the vulnerabilities experienced by people with disabilities. Facing laws limiting gatherings and policies closing down services and banning visitors from care and service homes, care providers found themselves needing to find new and alternative ways to engage with and support care users. Seeking to provide adequate c

An increasing amount of people living under the control of armed groups begged the question on the human rights obligations by armed groups in situation of protracted armed conflict. Traditionally, international human rights treaties only impose obligations on states. This raises concerns about the protection vacuum as well as accountability of the armed groups. A new phenomenon also emerged where

The rapid development of current information technology has brought about new aspirations in the academic world, especially in higher education organizations. Learning management systems (LMS) are software applications or Web-based technology used mainly for digital learning and studying. Even though there are many different kinds of LMS, the more advanced ones are usually highly priced and the si

Reconciliation research consists of two practices, one focusing on the emotional and healing aspects of the process and another that focus on the political and legal actions. Yeudith Auerbach created a theory, the reconciliation pyramid, which aims to manage both aspects. The purpose of this thesis is to apply Auerbach's theory to the reconciliation process in two empirical cases, the Rwandan

The invention of computers revolutionized the way of doing science and in particular the field of mathematics. Computers were faster than any human mind in doing calculations and they did not make mistakes opening a wide range of possibilities that earlier where in practice uncomputable. Scientists observe the behavior of nature and find mathematical equations that model the different phenomena. IThe efficient simulation of thermal interaction between fluids and structures is crucial in the design of many industrial products, e.g. turbine blades or rocket nozzles. The main goal of this work is to present a high order time adaptive multirate parallel partitioned coupled method for the efficient numerical solution of two parabolic problems with strong jumps in the material coefficients that

Product quality is a major concern for all companies. Predicting the lifetime return rate allows for identification of products with atypically high return rates. Such products might otherwise not have been detected before it is too late to take any action to reduce the return rate. Furthermore, predicting a product’s return rate allows for estimation of the company’s expected cost of handling ret

Commercial fish catch in Eastern Africa is dominated by Nile Perch. Of the fish that is processed for human consumption, 30-40% is wasted. Currently, these wastes are not fully utilized; they are sold off at low price, converted to low valued products or left to decompose leading to environmental pollution and wastage of bioresource. This biomass has however a potential to generate considerable re

In recent years, negative emissions technologies (NETs) have gained attention as a strategy to tackle climate change. While the academic debate on NETs has been heated, international and national governance frameworks for regulating and incentivising the technologies largely remain unseen. In this thesis, I add to a growing debate concerning the governance of NETs with an empirical investigation o

The systematic description of cultures – ethnography – included collecting objects for studying and illustrating the diversity of human culture around the world and the particularities of daily and ritual life of “Others”. In the early 19th-century the colonial enterprises, as well as the scientific interest in non-European nature, cultures and societies continued to develop. The latter gave birth

Previous reports and studies have found that gender, socioeconomic status, migration background and education are important factors in explaining reading amongst young people. A previous report from the Swedish Agency for Youth and Civil Society indicate that there are differences in reading depending on gender and birth country using confidence intervals. However, the report indicated that living

In the 1980s much effort was made to get an, until then, unknown Viking Age silver hoard into the University Museum of Lund for registration. It was a large hoard consisting of over 900 coins, jewelry and hacksilver. We succeeded to have the hoard on display a few days in 1986.Thereafter the hoard was collected again by the finders and its further destiny was unknown. This was very much to regret

The Covid-19 crisis presents an opportunity to evaluate the effectiveness of fiscal policy by investigating how fiscal stimuli aided recovery from the pandemic in Sweden. As Covid-19 have led to increased concerns of unsustainable debt levels, questions of how government spending has affected the economic rebound and fiscal sustainability arises. To tackle these questions, I evaluate pre-existing
