Samtidigt som bilen är själva grunden för det sätt vi förflyttar oss i samhället, utgör bilismen den främsta orsaken till transportsektorns negativa miljö- och hälsoeffekter. Denna avhandling handlar om politiska försök att gå bortom bilen, mot en mer hållbar form av mobilitet. Hållbar mobilitet eller hållbara transporter, som är den mer använda termen i Sverige, har de senaste decennierna kommit Transport policies in Western Europe are increasingly framed in terms of sustainable mobility.

The building sector is a major contributor to greenhouse gases, consuming significant energy and available resources. Energy renovation of buildings is an effective strategy for decarbonisation, as it lowers operational energy and avoids the embodied impact of new constructions. To be successful, the energy renovation process requires meaningful building models. However, the time and costs associa

Assessment of bilingual children in only one language fails to acknowledge their distributed linguistic competence and has been shown to overidentify language disorder in bilingual populations. However, other factors, sometimes associated with bilingualism, may also contribute to low results in language assessments. Our aim was to examine the impact of these factors on language abilities. We used

The article is based on a study of how social media and other types of online representations of nursing homes are described by staff.

The article addresses a key finding that was apparent in the interviews: the online representations' form and content were adjusted to fit the demands of res
