Swedish social services and healthcare systems have been bound by law since 2010 to collaborate when a client requires multiple interventions. This is called a Coordinated Individual Plan (CIP) to prevent clients from being overlooked by healthcare and social services. There has since been published several official reports that highlight the shortcomings of CIP. Our aim of this study was to exami
Losses and damages induced by climate change are increasingly felt by communities worldwide, disproportionately affecting communities relying on subsistence agriculture. Peru is one of the countries most vulnerable to losses and damages, due to its high exposure to climatic risks and the relative vulnerability of its population. To respond to climate-driven loss, the Warsaw International Mecha
This study aims to examine how social workers in adult-oriented services describe their consideration of the child perspective when the adult client is also a parent. Furthermore, the study will explore the opportunities, limitations, and ethical dilemmas that emerge in this professional work. The study will adopt a qualitative research approach and is based on six semi-structured interviews with
This article responds to the general neglect of legal culture in the study of climate mobilities. It presents a case study of climate mobilities in an unplanned settlement in Maputo, Mozambique, exploring how legal culture influenced residents’ decision-making processes as they navigated climate-related risks in their daily lives. We demonstrate that legal culture can facilitate climate mobilities
Soil temperature fluctuations are typical at high latitudes in early spring or late autumn. Freeze-thaw cycles (FTCs) occur when the soil temperature fluctuates around 0°C, causing a change in the state of the soil solution. Due to climate change, FTCs are predicted to become more frequent and intense, especially in the Arctic, Antarctic, and cold temperate regions. In this study, two experiments
The Covid-19 pandemic is in multiple ways a new type of crisis. The virus outbreak has had a serious impact on global health and has caused an economic downturn that is heavily driven by the restrictions implemented to attenuate the health-crisis. Apart from affecting the mobility of individuals, these restrictions impose additional constraints that policy makers need to adhere to when conducting
This thesis explores the potential of Blockadia resistance, the resistance of frontline communities against fossil fuel extraction, for the climate justice movement. Driven by the need for alternative forms of climate action that address the root causes of climate change, this study examines if local fossil fuel resistance gives rise to a justice based environmentalism. The analysis is conducted o
Human trafficking is an exploitative crime occurring worldwide. According to the International Organization on Migration (IOM), research on human trafficking’s underlying causes is lacking; particularly the role of climate change and natural disasters. Environmentally displaced persons (EDPs) are vulnerable to human trafficking, but this connection is not widely understood. In order to contribute
The aim of this essay is to study the key characteristics of the Bildungsroman and examine if the same traits still are in use in contemporary fiction and what values that are being mediated. The aim is also to focus on the style in which the pedagogical message is being delivered thus highlighting the possible differences and similarities between an old-fashioned Bildungsroman, Charles Dickens’ G
Competition policy is important for the promotion of fair competition, preventing abuse of market power and protecting consumer and business interests. It is thus an area that builds and moulds itself according to the fabric or structure of society and eventually evolves by habitually adjusting to the dynamics of government economies. Despite the different economic dynamics between the European Un
Denna studie undersökte ungdomars erfarenheter av viktmobbning i en svensk skolkontext, samt hur ungdomar upplever skolans strategier för att hantera viktmobbning och vilka insatser de önskar att skolan hade vidtagit. Eftersom tidigare forskning som fokuserar på själva upplevelsen av viktmobbning är begränsad, gjordes en explorativ kvalitativ studie där en kritisk realistisk position intogs för atThe aim of this study was to investigate adolescents’ experiences of weight- related bullying in a Swedish school context, how they experience the schools’ strategies for weight-related bullying and which actions they wished the schools had taken. Since previous research on the subject is limited, an explorative qualitative study was conducted in which a critical realist position was adopted. The
This comparative study, which includes narrative, rhetoric, and reception analyses of two films depicting the current war in Ukraine—Bucha and 20 Days in Mariupol—explores the differences in how these films are received by various parties involved in the conflict, specifically Ukraine and russia, as well as by other countries affected by the war. The paper also features a chapter on the russian pr
In the current research, effects of the layout of film holes near the first-stage vane leading edge on the endwall cooling and phantom cooling of the vane suction side surface were numerically studied. The computational results indicate that the case with a positive film-hole angle achieves a higher cooling effectiveness level on the endwall and vane suction side surface compared to the case with
A search for Higgs-boson pair production in the bbbb final state is carried out with 3.2 fb-1 of proton-proton collision data collected at s=13 TeV with the ATLAS detector. The data are consistent with the estimated background and are used to set upper limits on the production cross section of Higgs-boson pairs times branching ratio to bbbb for both nonresonant and resonant production. In the case
Background: People with hemophilia (PwH) or von Willebrand disease (VWD) are at risk of joint bleeding, which can lead to hemophilic arthropathy. Point-of-care musculoskeletal ultrasound (POC-MSKUS) is increasingly used to detect joint bleeds, but a comprehensive compilation of available independent scanning protocols and their respective measurement properties is missing. Objectives: This study a
Modified ZYMO DNA/RNA miniprep extraction protocol written in a user friendly way to reduce in-process-decisions and process time. Sample type is organic soil, peat, from a degraded rich fenThis protocol includes two modifications to tackle clogged filters. Samples were centrifuged for 45 seconds instead of 30 seconds in first pass through filters as 100 ul to 200 ul sample remained trapped above
Resilience is a critical issue for water resource systems. Over the past few decades, these systems have been significantly disrupted by natural disasters and human activities, resulting in substantial economic losses. This study develops a resilience evaluation framework based on a comprehensive literature review and applies it to assess the resilience of the Yangtze River Basin (YRB). The result
In this work the design of an experimental test Platform analysis of the mechanical behavior of car seats during passenger ingress and egress is presented. This development has been performed in two steps: the first Step is data acquisition. by means of a mat sensorized with a pressure gauge net and a photogrammetry system so as to acquire the movements performed by a human during ingress and egre
Invariant mass distributions of jet pairs (dijets) produced in LHC proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy root s = 7 TeV have been studied using a data set corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb(-1) recorded in 2011 by ATLAS. Dijet masses up to similar to 4 TeV are observed in the data, and no evidence of resonance production over background is found. Limits are set at 95
