Understanding context is paramount to the practice of crisis communication. In this thesis, I explore how cultural and political contexts influence crisis communication using Liberia as the area of study. However, the scope is narrowed to understanding the research phenomenon from the perspective of communicators in public sector organizations. Using a qualitative, interpretive research approach a
Several digital technologies are now available to record and document archaeological excavations. A large number of studies have been published concerning the use of laser scanning, image based 3D modelling and GIS. By integrating different typologies of 3D data from Uppåkra, an Iron Age central place in southern Sweden, this thesis focuses on the development and evaluation of how 3D Geographic In
To encounter the ambiguity of the contemporary understanding of neighborhood, we must fundamentally view the concept from a broad historical and global perspective. A neighborhood should be understood as an organism; this whole organism is alive, constantly changing, and its structure is fluid. The way people live and create community has changed with all the social and technological changes in th
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) are brominated flame retardants. These compounds are lipophilic, persistent and have been shown to bioaccumulate. The Baltic grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) and the Eurasian otter (Lutra lutra) are top predators and especially exposed to high levels of lipophilic pollutant in their diet due to biomagnification. In the current
Begreppet visselblåsare benämner en person som avslöjar missförhållanden i myndigheter, företag eller samhället i övrigt. I arbetslivet är visselblåsning särskilt viktigt eftersom visselblåsaren ofta avslöjar viktig information som allmänheten inte har tillgång till. Trots det har studier visat att arbetstagare som får kännedom om missförhållanden ofta avstår från att slå larm. Regeringen antog EUThe term "whistleblower" refers to an individual who discloses wrongdoing in authorities, companies, or society in general. Whistleblowing holds significant importance in the workplace as it frequently unveils vital information inaccessible to the general public. However, studies have shown that employees who become aware of misconduct frequently choose not to report it. The EU-directive

It was a quantitative study that consisted of two parts, a survey and a structured interview. The participants in the survey answered the survey before their first counseling
The bearing capacity of road E22 from Hurva to Linderöd is analyzed using data from Falling Weight Deflectometer, FWD. A new method called Traffic Speed Deflectometer, TSD, is analyzed and compared to data from FWD to determine the application range of the new method. In addition to these analyzes, various bearing capacity dimensions are explained and used for both methods. From the FWD data a bac
Due to expanding cities and increasing population infrastructure needs to expand in a safe and sustainable way with little effect on the environment and economy. Years of urbanization doesn’t make it easy, no free spaces are available and culture marked buildings are protected. The only alternative left is to construct in layers. Roads and other kinds of infrastructure beneath ground level is ther
At Haväng in eastern Scania, South Sweden, an underwater landscape occurs on the seabed. The landscape consists of deep-rooted pines standing in organic deposits. Due to sea level changes, the area was exposed during two phases (11,700 to 10,700 and 10,000 to 8,500 years ago) so that pines could live there, to subsequently drown and end up submerged. This study aims to show how the Baltic Sea form
The purpose of this study was to compare the food security and dietary diversity status of Bangladeshi immigrants living in Sweden to their position in Bangladesh. Structured surveys were used to collect data from 15 Bangladeshi immigrants, which included demographic information as well as indices of food security and dietary diversity. Food security was assessed using the Household Food Insecurit

This thesis explores the construction and negotiation of Tibetan identities through the lens of native Tibetan cinema, with a focus on Pema Tseden’s Balloon (2019). Drawing on theories of identity as construction, cultural hybridity, and minor cinema, the study examines how cinematic narratives and audience interpretations intersect to produce a nuanced understanding of Tibetan identities in conte
Context. The adverse effects of interstellar extinction makes the optical range unsuitable for spectroscopic analysis of stellar populations in dust-obscured regions of the Milky Way. With new instruments available, high-quality spectroscopy in the near-infrared (near-IR or NIR) range is now feasible. However, this region of the electromagnetic spectrum is relatively unexplored for the purpose of
Sverige står idag inför sitt mest allvarliga säkerhetspolitiska läge sedan andra världskriget, med globala pandemier, geopolitiska konflikter och extrema väderfenomen. Dessa händelser har synliggjort sårbarheterna i ett livsmedelssystem som bygger på 'just-in-time'-distribution och ett stort beroende av externa insatsmedel. Denna uppsats undersöker tankesättet bakom regenerativa livsmedelsSweden is currently facing its most serious security policy situation since World War II, with global pandemics, geopolitical conflicts, and extreme weather events. These events have shown the vulnerabilities of a food system built on "just-in-time" distribution and heavy reliance on external inputs.
