Denna uppsats syftar till att undersöka målkonflikten mellan den gröna industrialiseringen och den samiska ursprungsbefolkningens rättigheter samt intressen, med särskilt fokus på hur konflikten manifesteras i konsultationer med samiska företrädare. Dessa konsultationer genomförs i enlighet med lagen om konsultation i frågor som rör det samiska folket, en central lagstiftning i denna studie. För aThis thesis aims to examine the conflict of goals between the green industrialization and the rights and interests of the indigenous Sami people, with a particular focus on how the conflict manifests in consultations with the Sami people. These consultations are conducted under the Act on Consultation in Matters Concerning the Sami People, a central piece of legislation in this study. In order to

Människor spenderar mer än 90 % av livet inomhus. En innemiljö med god luftkvalitet är avgörande för människors välmående, både kort- och långsiktigt. Människor kan drabbas av bland annat huvudvärk, irriterade slemhinnor, hosta, andnings- och koncentrationssvårigheter orsakat av föroreningar i luften. Detta examensarbete kartlägger information och forskning inom ämnet luftkvalitet och hälsa i formThis thesis summarizes research within the subject of air quality and health in residential and public buildings. The work examines health effects and the relationship with ventilation systems, airflow rates, carbon dioxide, airborne particles and radon. The literature study was conducted using scientific articles obtained from the databases Web of Science, DiVA Portal and PubMed. Theoretical info

Fragmentation from the extraction of bone marrow for consumption is a common phenomenon in archaeological assemblages, because of the high fat content of bone marrow, it was an important source of sustenance in prehistory. From the perspective of marrow fracturing, analysis of these fragmented refuse materials gives insight into the general strategies for harvesting bone marrow. The fragmentation

The purpose of this study is to investigate how different professions view collaboration within the framework of a collaboration project aimed at juveniles who live in a socio-economically disadvantaged area. In the study, it is the individual's thoughts, opinions, and experiences that are investigated. Differences, similarities, challenges, and possible solutions that the professionals descri

Empathy is a known word used in many private and professional contexts. People can relate to it, but the definition is elusive. It is also elusive in science, with different definitions depending on which scientific approach is taken. Also, within the field of social work, empathy is conceptualized and understood differently. Therefore, this study aims to explore how social workers describe and ut

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and other autoimmune diseases (AIDs) often co-occur in families. Leveraging data from 58,284 family trios in Finnish nationwide registers (FinRegistry), we identified that, of 50 parental AIDs examined, 15 were associated with an increased T1D risk in offspring. These identified epidemiological associations were further assessed in 470,000 genotyped Finns from the FinnGen stu

In this study of human carotid endarterectomy plaques (using 1128 regions of interest in a total of 10 plaques), we found that photon counting computed tomography (PCCT) can differentiate between attenuation and the spectral patterns of calcium, intra-plaque haemorrhage, thrombus, fibrosis, necrosis and lipid core. This is the first study to show the potential of PCCT in living patients using clin

This article seeks to contribute to understanding the practical “how” of a just climate transition as a systemic change with a focus on the local level. With the backdrop of the central role of municipalities in terms of governance in achieving climate transition while also fulfilling societal functions, it explores cases of eco-social innovations (ESI) of circular practices, with a specific inter

Forest loss, fragmentation, and transformation negatively impact forest biodiversity and ecosystem functionality worldwide. Improving landscape intactness and connectivity through restoration is critical. Determining where to restore remains, however, a challenge. As an approach for prioritizing restoration areas, we define connectivity forest (CFs) as forests outside recognized high conservation

Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, including esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, liver, and colorectal malignancies, represent a major global health burden due to their high incidence, aggressive nature, and limited treatment outcomes. This review explores the therapeutic potential of carvacrol, a naturally occurring monoterpenoid phenol predominantly found in oregano and other aromatic plants. Carvacrol

The Nordic countries have been described as generous front-runners in their development assistance, making observers suggest the existence of a ‘Nordic Model’. They have been claimed to play a leadership role in a European and global context. Recently, however, this characterisation has been challenged due to changes in Nordic policies and in the external environment.

The acknowledgement that mankind has a limited amount of resources in energy and a growing demand, joined with the awareness of the environmental impact of an only fuel-based electricity production have led to the expansion and democratization of renewable and green energies. The wind electricity production nowadays exists under various forms, differing one from another by their size, their mechan

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie var att genom semistrukturerade intervjuer synliggöra elever på resursskola och deras upplevelser av problemsituationer och bemötande i en skolmiljö. Åtta elever i åldrarna 10-16 år vid två olika resursskolor i Skåne intervjuades för ändamålet. Tematisk analys användes för identifiering av teman i intervjumaterialet. Resultaten visade att problemsituationer och
