Global warming has become a scientific consensus. Climate change induced impacts on both natural and human systems have been observed. Climate financing for mitigation and adaptation has increased over the years, but it is still far from what is needed according to the 1.5 ̊C scenario by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The concept of green bond was developed as an innovative way to
Due to climate change and the urban heat island effect, urban areas face increasing heat stress, a change that has severe consequences on human health. While the need for climate adaptation is pressing, the impact of climate adaptation projects on other sectors also needs to be carefully examined. Much scholar work has focused on how to best align different sectoral goals; however, very little res
The globalisation and industrialisation of the agricultural sector made it possible to produce larger amounts of food in a faster and cheaper way than ever before, linking consumers to producers all around the planet. Although industrial food production has provided benefits for humanity in terms of access to food it is also at the root of many negative environmental and social impacts, such as bi
Under Coronakrisen har många företag tvingats anpassa sig till en total digital spelplan för att öka social distansering. De digitala verktygen blir därmed nyckelspelare för att bibehålla önskad produktivitet hos de anställda. Tidigare forskning visar motstridiga resultat vad gäller distansarbetets påverkan och omfattar främst organisationer som frivilligt tillåter distansarbete för dess anställda
CILFIT is a landmark case when it comes to language issues in interpreting EU law. But its criteria have raised many practical implications which have hitherto not been sufficiently dealt with. One area that still needs much attention is whether the European Court of Justice (the Court) in CILFIT has placed an obligation on national courts to compare all the language versions when interpreting EU
The purpose of this thesis is to investigate an alternative way of management within physical systems engineering development (PSED), a term which represents all fields of engineering where physical components are involved. More specifically, analysing how agile methodologies can be applicable with the use of technological advancements to overcome the restrictions hindering the increase of efficie
The Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive calls for a new chapter in the fight against tax avoidance and abuse in the European Union - as a minimum level of protection against tax avoidance practises is established. Member States have a certain degree of discretion when implementing the directive. They must however make sure that measures transposed are in line with primary EU law. This essay investigates
According to Art. 58 VAT Directive digital services are to be taxed at the place where the customer resides. The Implementing Regulation provides certain presumptions for suppliers to determine that place. These presumptions are analysed in this thesis regarding their actual compliance effort for companies, as well as the implementation of the destination principle. But before, the conditions and
Fotbollen är en av världens absolut största populärkulturella fenomen vad gäller allt från fritidsintresse till en global industri med mängder av stora ekonomiska investeringar. Således finns mer intressanta aspekter av fotbollen än enbart det rent sportsliga utövandet att undersöka inom samhällsvetenskapen. Tidigare studier har genomgående påpekat att fotbollen, sett ur ett klassperspektiv, haft
Gaze behaviour has previously been shown to support memory retrieval. Looking at the encoding location of a to-be-retrieved object leads to higher retrieval performance. How gaze exerts this function is still unknown. One possibility is that gaze fixations upregulate the activity and accessibility of memories associated with a looked-at location. This study uses an adapted retrieval-practice parad
The aim of this thesis is to present a comparability analysis between the tax on certain digital services approved by Spain; article 107 (1) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and the case law of the CJEU on state aid, to determine whether the application this tax gives competitive advantages to some companies over others.
Bakgrund: I Sverige erbjuds alla kvinnor mammografiscreening mellan ålder 40–74. Inför mammografiscreening finns ett frågeformulär som kvinnan ska besvara innan undersökningen. Under mammografiundersökningen klär patienten av sig på överkroppen för att underlätta undersökningen och för att minska risker för artefakter i bilden. Syftet med studien var att beskriva kvinnors upplevelser av mammografi
The corporate reporting practice is adapting to rising demands by stakeholders and shareholders for an enhanced consideration of non-financial information. These interest groups demand management to look beyond the financials and determine which factors create long-term value for the organisation. Moreover, regulatory pressure is exercised on the company. The purpose of this thesis is thus, to ga

Domestic violence is a cruel and inhumane act of aggression that is inflicted on a victim by someone in their close domestic circle. This includes partners, ex-partners, immediate family members, other relatives and family friends. Violence within the home is the most common form of interpersonal violence for women. The aim of domestic violence programs and shelters is to empower the survivors an
In this bachelor project, the main objective is to investigate how a two-level quantum system can be controlled using weak continuous measurements and feedback control. The Monte-Carlo method was used to simulate the system dynamics under measurement and feedback to investigate how the system state can be controlled. This thesis concludes on how the feedback function impacts the purity of the stat
Endometriosis is an inflammatory disease where endometrium grows outside the uterus. It affects 10 percent of women, most presenting with symptoms during adolescence. The median age for diagnosis is 37 y/o, despite the early onset. Diagnosing endometriosis is difficult in children, and adolescents with endometriosis is an area in need of research. Previous studies have found that women with endome
The preferred method for synthesising therapeutic peptides today is by Solid-Phase Peptide Synthesis (SPPS). SPPS is a wasteful process, where the main component of the waste is hazardous solvents, i.e., N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or dichloromethane (DCM). 3 It is therefore desirable to search for new and greener solvents to use for SPPS, which is what has been studied
The transport sector is responsible for a third of Swedens’ total GHG emissions, where the private cars are a large part of this. Sweden is committed to reducing the emissions from the transport sector with 70 % until the year 2030. Shifting the vehicle fleet to electrical will be one important factor in achieving the goal, but such technical innovation will not be enough. To reach a more sust
