Background: Since 1994 the need for joint sexual and reproductive health (SRH) responsibility between men and women to achieve gender equality and reduce health inequalities has received more attention. The focus has been on young people as they transition into adulthood and are vulnerable to the negative consequences of early pregnancy and childbirth, STIs and early parenthood. Traditionally, con

In the following report, a fire safety evaluation of Hotel Nissastigen in central Gislaved is presented. The building itself consists of five floors, whereof two are cellar and attic. Beyond the usual hotel business, Nissastigen both offers a place to eat at their restaurant and room for conferences, as well as acting as a gathering point for tourists, thus making it vital for the local economy.

Detta examensarbete syftar till att undersöka instrumentalpedagogers syn på Rytmikpedagogikens möjligheter för nybörjarelever i musik. Till grund för undersökningen ligger författarens återkommande funderingar kring hur Rytmikundervisning ser ut på kulturskolor samt vilken roll den har där. I teorikapitlet redogörs Rytmikens historia och innebörd, följt av en beskrivning av litteratur och tidigareThis paper aims to explore instrumental teachers approach to possibilities with the eurhythmics in the education for beginners in music. The reason to this paper is the authors recurring speculations in how eurhythmics is done in Swedish municipal music schools and what role it has there. The theory chapter give a description of the eurhythmics history and the meaning of the method, followed by an

Popular science summary: NADase – a way to avoid immune system activation? Streptococcus pyogenes (S. pyogenes) are bacteria that cause many different kinds of diseases in humans, for example strep throat, scarlet fever and necrotizing fasciitis, the ”flesh-eating disease”. An infection with this type of bacteria can also lead to heart and kidney damage, thought to be caused by our immune system

More than 50 percent of Jamaican households are remittances receiving. Remittances generally form a source of supplemental household income by helping households cover expenses such as utilities,healthcare, education etc. Studies have focused on its reaction to economic shocks, structural changes, its use as insurance or safety net or generally just observing trends. This study employs propensity

Research suggests that polyphenols, such as anthocyanins, that are found in considerable amounts in many types of berries, contributes with a positive effect on human cognition. However, clinical trials are warranted to support these findings. Preparation for such a trial includes developing a berry-rich study product and a corresponding reference beverage. Phenolic compounds are highly unstable a

Fastighetsmarknaden i Sverige omsätter ungefär 100.000 fastigheter till ett sammanlagt värde av 300 miljarder svenska kronor. Fastighetsöverlåtelsernas påverkan för individen och på samhällsnivå kan inte underskattas. Den digitaliserande trenden har påverkat denna bransch starkt internationellt och i Norge har lagändringar genomförts för att anpassa fastighetsöverlåtelsen till den moderna och digiThe real estate market in Sweden has a turnover of approximately 100,000 properties with a total value of 300 billion SEK. The impact of the property transfers on the individual and at the community level cannot be underestimated. The digitalisation trend has had a major impact on this industry internationally and in Norway, legislative changes have been made to adapt the property transfer to the

Den digitala utvecklingen har förändrat detaljhandelsbranschen i stor utsträckning. Priserna på e-handelsmarknaden är normalt sett lägre än priserna i fysiska butiker till följd av hård konkurrens, prismedvetna konsumenter och dynamisk prissättning (en prissättningsmodell som innebär att priserna på en produkt varierar flera gånger om dagen). Prismarknadsföring (realisationer, slutförsäljningar, uDigitalisation has had a significant impact on the retail industry. Due to strong competition, price-conscious consumers and dynamic pricing (a pricing strategy in which prices varies several times throughout the day) prices in E-commerce are usually lower than prices in traditional commerce. Under these circumstances, price reductions (sales, clearance sales and finale sales) and price comparison

This project addresses the problems the traditional loom has in our modern so- ciety resulting in a product that provides a new and modernized way of looking at the loom. A lighter, easier and more intuitive version that one could use even without having previous experience with weaving. Most of us have an encountered a loom in our lives, but very few have a relationship to it. As weaving is one

Almost every organizations works with projects, since a project is a onetime task with a clear beginning and an end and have never be done before. It is hard to say that a specific project method will suit all projects. It is up to the project manager who leads the project to choose a project method and use this as a tool to get the project to be successful together with a project team. Some resea

Structural, elastic and electronic properties of zircon-type and scheelite-type EuVO4 are investigated experimentally, by in-situ X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation, and theoretically within the framework of the density functional theory (DFT) and using the PBE prescription of the exchange-correlation energy. This study was motivated by the fact that the previous knowledge of the equati

Highly strained GaAs/GaP nanowires of excellent optical quality were grown with 50 nm diameter GaAs cores and 25 nm GaP shells. Photoluminescence from these nanowires is observed at energies dramatically shifted from the unstrained GaAs free exciton emission energy by 260 meV. Using Raman scattering, we show that it is possible to separately measure the degree of compressive and shear strain of th

The work presented in this report was based upon two different stages, with the aim of coming up with an improved screening process concerning fire spread within PSA at Ringhals Nuclear Power Plant in Sweden. The first phase consisted of creating a methodology for the screening process, which was based on various screening data, such as CDF, fire loads and openings between compartments. Each sprea

This study investigates the potential of urease-positive fungus strains to form calcium carbonate via urea hydrolysis. Besides, we compare the precipitation ability of living and dead biomass of fungus to determine which one has better strontium removal performance. The first hypothesis was that the Sr removal efficiency of living biomass of fungus cultivated without Ca was expected to be lower th

Studien syftar till att ta fram rekommendationer och råd kring hur klimatpåverkan från anläggningsentreprenader kan beräknas och redovisas. Detta genom att undersöka hur andra aktörer inom branschen agerar i frågan och kartlägga modeller och verktyg för klimatberäkningar. Studien har utförts som en kombination av kvalitativa och kvantitativa forskningsmetoder, vilket kan liknas vid begreppet triaThe purpose of the study is to come up with recommendations and advice on how to calculate and present the climate impact from construction works. This will be implemented by examining how other actors within the construction industry is acting on the issue and examine models and tools for climate calculations. The study was conducted as a combination of qualitative and quantitative research meth

Course: FEKN90, Degree project for Master of Science in Business and Economics (30 ECTS) Authors: Petrea Godderidge, Nicole Johansson and Lina Larsson Supervisor: Annette Cerne Key words: Generation Y, store loyalty, private labels, grocery retailer Purpose: The purpose of this thesis is to investigate what impact private labels, in relation to other store loyalty driving factors within the

Clusters are particles which consist of a finite number (2 − 10 ^6−7 ) of atoms/molecules. For the work presented in this thesis free clusters have been produced in order to study their properties, free of interfering substrates, using photoelectron spectroscopy at the MAX-lab synchrotron facility in Lund, Sweden. The clusters were produced using a magnetron-based sputtering source and are conside
