Like other African countries, Kenya’ economy and food security is heavily dependent on agriculture. Climate change has led to variability in temperature and precipitation, and extreme weather events such as droughts and floods, all of which can significantly impact crop productivity and food security in the long-term. Furthermore, water scarcity poses a critical challenge for Kenya, particularly i
Upplevelser hos människor som söker asyl eller flyktingstatus präglas av olika prövningar och svåra upplevelser innan, under och efter migrationen, vilket gör dessa individer mer mottagliga för att utveckla psykisk ohälsa. Denna scoping review syftade till att kartlägga och utforska relationen mellan postmigrationsstressorer (såsom utmaningar relaterade till legal status, ekonomi, boendesituation,Experiences of people seeking refuge and asylum are characterized by diverse adversities before, during, and after migration, making these individuals more susceptible to developing mental ill health. This scoping review intended to map and explore the relation between post-migration stressors (such as struggles related to legal status, finances, housing, and discrimination in the context of reset
This study examines the challenges Sweden faces in implementing legislation against human trafficking for sexual purposes, analyzing the issue through conflict theory and feminist perspectives. Employing qualitative content analysis, the research identifies and categorizes causes such as demand, misogyny, inadequate legislation, and socioeconomic vulnerability. The primary research questions addre
The carbon intensity is an important metric that provides a clear measure of the environmental impact associated with the electricity use. Carbon intensity of electricity use is differentiated into CO₂ equivalents per kilowatt-hour, which standardises the measurement by expressing the emissions of various greenhouse gases in terms of the equivalent amount of CO₂ based on their global warming poten
Title: Effect on retail store image of a new format development: An explorative study of store image customers' associations in a pick-up point format setting Seminar Date: 30th May 2016 Course: BUSN39 Business Administration: Global Marketing Authors: Irene Grimani & Alfredo Privitello Supervisor: Ulf Johansson Key Words: Store image; format development; pick-up point; traditional for
Approximately a quarter of a million women are diagnosed with ovarian cancer annually worldwide. Identifying the genes involved may ultimately lead to the development of corrective and preventive measures to fight this type of cancer. Next Generation Sequencing is a technology that can reveal the genes central to cancer initiation and development, however the analysis of the data is problematic du
Cities face a host of challenges including urbanisation and climate change and must quickly adapt and integrate sustainability solutions to deal with these challenges. One platform seen as a mechanism to support innovation for sustainability in cities is the concept of the living lab. A living lab is a user-centred, open innovation ecosystem that seeks to engage academia, industry and municipaliti
New legislation involving emissions from internal combustion engines are pushing the manu-facturers to develop new technology faster than ever before with the amount of greenhouse gases. To meet the standards new concepts need to be developed with lower fuel consumption and emissions. This thesis covers the implementation of a couple of methods to achieve this. These concepts are DEP with fully va
In the Netherlands it is very common to separate household waste inside the home. In several Dutch municipalities a financial incentive system has been implemented that is intended to motivate residents to manage and separate household waste more efficiently. The system has shown to give good results when evaluated in terms of the amount of collected household waste. However, no research exists on
In the State of Oaxaca in Southern Mexico exist abundant natural resource and excellent wind conditions. Currently in the region of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec in Oaxaca has an extensive area with wind farm projects due to their excellent wind speed conditions. A large wind energy plant – the Project Mareña Renovables that since their origins started in 2004 with Preneal Company. It was planned to
This thesis provides an account of the storage strategies for mitigation of excess electricity production (EEP) from wind energy in the Öresund region of Denmark and southern Sweden, characterized by an increasing share of wind power. Hydrogen is a versatile storage technology with potential in both large and small scale options, and for utilization in several application areas. TIS framework and
Popular summary The environmental and social consequences of predicted climate change are expected to be amplified in urban environments due to their elevated temperatures, which are attributable to a phenomenon known as the Urban Heat Island. As most types of vegetation can provide for cooler air temperatures due to their natural cooling effect, increasing amounts of vegetation in urban areas mig
Large quantities and numbers of organic compounds (OCs) from industries and domestic sources enter the wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) everyday, which is an ever-increasing issue in modern society. In WWTPs, the pollutants are either degraded or emitted to the air, the effluent (water) or the sludge (biosolids). Even though the sludge may contain toxic contaminants and heavy metals, there is a
Reklam har olika budskap för att påverka och influera oss. Denna uppsats syftar till kvalitativt undersöka hur samhällsideal och normer konstrueras i sex specifika Calvin Klein parfym reklamfilmer. Vidare syftar studien till att studera hur reklamfilmerna använder sig av genusrelaterade konstruktioner och stereotypa bilder. Den här uppsatsen har schematiskt tittat på ett bestämt antal aspekter i a
The aim of this thesis work was to investigate and evaluate new possible industrial applications for large welded plate heat exchangers, with heat transfer areas of at least 500 m2. The research has been carried out through thermal design of heat exchangers for a total of nine cases. The nine cases are real-life applications for processes covering the petrochemical, oil & gas, power, and refin
This thesis will examine the plausibility of exchanging protocol from a normal server-client to a peer-to-peer solution for over-the-air updates, using a single case study for Sony Mobile Communications AB in Lund, Sweden. It will examine the effort, the risks, and what the actual gain may be comparing to a client-server approach for over-the-air software updates. Sony Mobile today uses a content
This thesis is a descriptive case study of the institutional measures to improve women’s representation in Chile between 2015 and 2022. Women in Chile have historically been underrepresented because of two institutions introduced by former dictator Pinochet: the 1980 constitution and the binomial electoral system. In 2015, Chile reformed its electoral system to replace the binomial system with a
Under the background of the rapid development of social media, video storytelling plays an essential role in the development of a brand. More and more videos with the personal brand have become popular among the public. However, in the context of the storytelling approach, personal branding through storytelling has been rarely reported in the literature. In this study, showing the YouTuber, Li Ziq
