The Modular Hygiene Station

Disposable hygiene products, such as gloves and aprons, are commonly and frequently used in healthcare environments and are essential to maintain the hygiene standard. They are placed in different types of carriers, primarily in examination rooms and are mounted on the walls. This creates some difficulties for product development and fast access because not all hygiene products fit all carriers an

From Software Consulting to Venture Building: A Case Study on Venture Studio Business Models

Detta examensarbete utforskar det relativt outforskade fenomenet venture studios (även känt som bolagsbyggare, venture builders och startup studios), vilka är företag som systematiskt bygger bolag. Trots att antalet venture studios ökar så är akademisk forskning kring ämnet relativt begränsad. Denna studie syftar till att fylla denna kunskapslucka genom att genomföra en fallstudie på sex svenska vThis master's thesis explores the relatively unexplored phenomenon of venture studios (also known as venture builders or startup studios), which are companies that systematically and concurrently build startups. Despite their growing popularity, the academic literature on how venture studios operate is still limited and no structured and extensive description of the business model appears to e

Sårbarhet och/eller autonomi till (av)kriminaliseringens försvar – Om sårbarhetens roll i Sveriges rättsliga hantering av prostitution

Köp av sexuell tjänst har i Sverige varit förbjudet sedan 1999. Införandet av förbudet var en del i arbetet mot mäns våld mot kvinnor. Lagen har därefter genomgått en rad ändringar, senast en straffskärpning 2022. I december 2022 publicerade Norges regering en offentlig utredning där ett förslag på avkriminalisering av sexköp presenterades. I Norge inspirerades man 2009 av den svenska modellen ochThe crime of purchase of sexual services has been criminalized in Sweden since 1999. The introduction of the ban was part of the work against men's violence against women. The law has subsequently undergone a series of changes, most recently a toughening of the penalty in August 2022. In December 2022, the Norwegian government published a public inquiry in which a proposal for the decriminaliz

Tempeh fermentation using side streams from the food industry with lactic acid bacteria pre fermentation.

Today, a greater proportion of the population prefers a plant-based diet. Due to this reason, there is an increase in the production of side streams from the food industry, which are often discarded or used as food for animals. Tempeh is a plant-based product fermented with R. oligosporus that is commonly made from soybeans from Indonesia. In this thesis, side streams from food production which ar

Gas-Phase Anion Exchange for Multisegment Heterostructured CsPb(Br1xClx)3 Perovskite Nanowires

Metal-halide perovskites (MHPs) are promising as active optoelectronic materials for a diverse range of devices. Anion exchange is a post-growth modification of MHP materials that allows tuning of the band gap and crystal structure by exposure to alternative halides, normally using solution methods. Here, low temperature gas-phase anion exchange for the conversion of CsPbBr3 nanowires (NW) into Cs

Revitalizing Jute Farming: A Case Study of ICARE Scheme in West Bengal, India

The Jute-ICARE initiative by the Government of India aims to address climate change's impact and improve jute farmers' livelihoods. This study investigates the challenges and opportunities for jute farmers in adopting the scheme's technologies using the DPSIR framework and the social learning theory. Inadequate information dissemination to farmers and differing perspectives between pol

A Waste of Food-Waste Bags

It is estimated that the average Swede throws away 61 kg of food waste annually. The more food waste there is, the more food waste bags are required. Since the implementation of a tax on thin plastic bags, grocery stores have been providing fruit bags of paper as an eco-friendly alternative. This study examines the current usage of paper fruit bags in the municipality of Helsingborg and explores t

A Recipe for Perfection: A qualitative study in understanding how consumers use food social media trends to navigate the idealised feminine self.

Food and the feminine self have always had a profoundly complex relationship. It has been the site of gender oppression, corporeal discipline and more recently, self-pleasure and creativity for women. It is clear that material world foodwork has provided women with a resource to navigate gender ideals, whether from a more traditional or contemporary perspective; this idea extends to foodwork in th

Circularity indicators in practice: Exploring companies’ application and linkages to sustainability

The Circular Economy (CE) has gained global recognition as a way to enable sustainability improvements in production and consumption systems. Numerous circularity indicators (c-indicators) have been developed by academia and practitioners to be used at the company level as analytical tools to measure progress towards a more circular economy. Nevertheless, there is a lack of empirical evidence on t

The political ecology of wildfires, at the intersection of climate change and landscape - A case study of rural Tuscany, Italy

Wildfires are a climate change indicator whose increasing activity poses a threat to biodiversity and to ecosystem and human wellbeing. In the Mediterranean region, examination of the foundational drivers of intensifying wildfire regimes is necessary for the identification of sustainable wildfire mitigation measures. Literature review, semi-structured interviews, and focus group interviews with lo

Another Diplomacy for Health Equity: Finding the Necessity to Strengthen Capacity for Global Health Diplomacy in Low- and Middle-Income Countries via Indonesian Experiences

Despite the hegemonic status of global health governance that favors the high-income countries (HICs), global health diplomacy (GHD) as a critical tool to manage health is an understudied subject particularly in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). This research illustrates how GHD is exercised in Indonesia by exploring the actors, their capacities, and the surrounding context. The aim of the

Usability of Sentinel-1 C-band VV and VH SAR data for the detection of flooded oil palm

Flooding in oil palm plantations in Southeast Asia is a common problem. The oil palm’s habitable range is restricted to lowland equatorial areas, and the high rainfall and degraded landscapes associated with oil palm cultivation leaves oil palm prone to flooding. Flooding diminishes yields in mature palms, increases mortality in young palms, and disrupts operational processes. This reduces the ec

Prevalence of SDG-Washing: An Empirical Analysis on Large Listed European Companies

The sustainable development goals (SDGs) were introduced in 2015 to steer worldwide progress towards a sustainable, inclusive and prosperous path. Since then companies have gradually taken up the goals and are today actively reporting contributions to the goals. However, with this, also a novel concept of SDG-washing has emerged – companies claiming to contribute to the SDGs but in reality not doi

Prosecuting the Russian Aggression – Assessing Proposals to Enable the Prosecution of Russian Leaders for the Crime of Aggression

I gengäld har världsledare och internationella organisationer krävt att den ryska aggressionen beivras.
