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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Den ryska invasionen av Ukraina har orsakat ofattbart mänskligt lidande och har destabiliserat den europeiska säkerhetsordningen. I gengäld har världsledare och internationella organisationer krävt att den ryska aggressionen beivras. Den rättsvetenskapliga debatten om lämpliga åtgärder för att säkerställa straffrättsligt ansvar för aggressionsbrottet har emellertid uppvisat stor oenighet bland forThe Russian invasion of Ukraine has brought immense suffering to the Ukrainian people and has destabilised the European security order. In response, world leaders and international organisations have called for the prosecution of the Russian aggression. However, the scholarly debate on the appropriate measures to ensure criminal accountability for the crime of aggression has demonstrated widesprea

Statistical modelling could be included in a betting strategy where the value of a bet is assessed by comparing model predictions and market odds. This thesis presents several models based on statistical learning methods for predicting the total number of corners in a football match. Generalised linear regression and decision tree models were developed and their profitability was examined by using

There is a widely regarded issue in Sweden, where its residents are categorized based on both their racial- and foreign affiliation, which may contribute to an individual's social exclusion from society. The categorization is based on a social construction with two opposite poles, “Swedes” and “non-swedes”, which causes concern for individuals with a foreign background as they become victims o
