The overall aim of this thesis is to develop knowledge of teaching and learning sustainable development in global–local contexts. The research field is global learning for sustainable development (GLSD). Phenomenographic approach and contextual analysis were used as methods of analysis, and data was collected by Semi-structured interviews at secondary and upper secondary schools in Sweden.In Study
In recent years, there is a growing interest for new lead-free oxides with reversible antiferroelectric (AFE)-ferroelectric (FE) phase transition for high-power energy-storage applications. NaNbO3-based ceramics are particularly attractive due to their easy synthesis and cost-effectiveness. In order to stabilize reversible AFE-FE phase transition, NaNbO3 is doped with a combination of heterovalent
The spatial distribution of buildings is one of the key factors influencing the local environment within a city. The quantitative measurement of building distribution can provide critical information for exploring local climate patterns in urban areas. Previous studies mainly focused on the two-dimensional spatial distribution of buildings and ignored the differences in height. In this study, a th
Since its establishment in 1969, external actors have been significantly involved in the implementation of nature conservation in Simien Mountains National Park (SMNP). As climate change becomes increasingly tangible, conservation activities are frequently being deployed to protect ecosystems across the globe. Albeit an emphasis on community-participation, the philosophy of exclusionary protection

Openness - Difference - Community Architecture is a spatial matter and deals primarily with the qualities in and of the everyday spaces where our lives play out/ take place. This exhibition shows different ways of dealing with the concept of dissonance in architecture through student projects from the School of Architecture at Lund University. Students are inspired to investigate, develop and desi

Local and regional governments play a key role in responding to climate change. Climate change vulnerability assessment is used to inform them about the possible risks and response options. It is apparent that with those assessments there is a risk of ‘learning on paper’ as opposed to ‘learning in use’. To move from one to another, the policy-makers have to understand climate change in relation
The aim of this master thesis is to examine how institutional rules and demands, present in cultural politics, affects the work with digitalisation in local museums. According to narrative trends in Sweden’s national cultural politics, digitalisation has the potential to encourage and increase democracy by enabling participation and wider access. Therefore, digitisation practices in cultural insti
Numerous studies have discussed the importance of multilevel governance for enhancing climate action at the urban level. However, there remains limited knowledge on the proliferation of multilevel climate governance in the Global South. Addressing this gap, this study aims to explore the implementation of multilevel climate governance at the urban level through a case study analysis of three India
Popular Abstract in Swedish Folkligt deltagande är något av en paroll i dagens utvecklingstänkande. När människor deltar i beslutsfattande och samhällsplanering på lokal nivå blir resultatet bättre och mer anpassat till lokala behov, särskilt i jämförelse med expertorienterade och centraliserade utvecklingsstrategier. Samtidigt kräver detta att folk i allmänhet vill delta och de har ett intresse aThe emphasis on people-centred development is distinctive in today’s development discourse. This is noticeable in catchwords like democratic decentralisation, participation, and empowerment, which are highly esteemed among NGOs, donors, and policymakers in recipient countries. The benefits of participatory approaches are several. When people influence the process of development, policies and pr
BACKGROUND. Leiomyosarcoma of nonvisceral soft tissues is an uncommon malignant tumor; thus, only small numbers of cases have been reported. This study was based on a large series of patients from the Scandinavian Sarcoma Group Register acquired during a 15-year period (from 1986 to 2001). Follow-up information was available for all patients. METHODS. The authors analyzed the clinical features of
Forming macroscopic solid bodies in circumstellar discs requires local dust concentration levels significantly higher than the mean. Interactions of the dust particles with the gas must serve to augment local particle densities, and facilitate growth past barriers in the metre size range. Amongst a number of mechanisms that can amplify the local density of solids, aerodynamic streaming instability
Denna avhandling studerar lokala aktörers roll vid förändringsarbete i gamla industriregioner. En gammal industriregion definieras som ett område med en ensidig och överspecialiserad industristruktur, som är dominerad av mogen industri och som upplever minskad sysselsättning och/eller avindustrialisering. Denna typ av region är ofta starkt påverkad av gamla strukturer och förväntas därför ha svåraThe aim of the dissertation is to develop a better understanding of the role of local agency in the transformation of old industrial regions. Theoretically the dissertation builds on concepts which are important in the debate on regional development in old industrial regions such as path dependency, negative lock-ins, the role of institutions, and new path development, while exploring and unpackin
Understanding biodiversity patterns poses a persistent challenge due to the complex interconnections of ecological and evolutionary processes. The particular difficulty comes from the various processes influencing biodiversity patterns across different spatial scales. This thesis aims to enhance comprehension of community diversity patterns by employing theoretical models that are capable of gener
Capital assets in local infrastructure constitute an overbearing concern for society, with the generation of benefits for the population being its prime purpose. Nevertheless, the conditions for the capital investment activities within local governments are diffuse. Which different kinds of investment goals actually exist? How to explain the priority of different capital investment goals? What exp

I dagsläget utförs fullskaliga kapacitetsprov på sprinkleranläggningar med syfte att undersöka om erforderligt tryck och flöde kan erhållas i händelse av brand. Fullskaliga kapacitetsprov är däremot relaterade till risker som lågt tryck i vattenledningsnät, blödning på gjutjärnsrör, översvämning av lågt belägna områden och tryckslag i rör. I detta arbete undersöks om reducerade kapacitetsprov sammTo this date, full-scale capacity tests are performed in sprinkler facilities in order to investigate if sufficient pressure and flow can be achieved in case of fire. Full-scale capacity tests may, however, cause problems such as low pressure in pipes, scaling of pipe walls, flooding of low topography areas, and water hammer. This report intends to research whether reduced capacity tests together
