Objective. To evaluate an intervention involving advance provision of emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) to Swedish teenage girls. Material and methods. Some 420 girls aged 15-19, requesting ECP at a local youth clinic were randomly assigned to intervention group (IG) (n=214) or control group (CG) (n=206). Both groups received ECP on request. The IG received one extra dose of ECP, condoms and an Objective. To evaluate an intervention involving advance provision of emergency contraceptive pills (ECP) to Swedish teenage girls.

This paper builds upon previous research on the relationship between IPR, trade and FDI based on data worldwide. As the result varies cross countries, this paper will focus on China to analyze the improvement of China’s IPR protection and analyze the potential impact of strengthening IPR protection on the development of trade and FDI using data from WTO, WIPO, MOFCOM and so on. Unlike developed co

IntroductionOccupational balance has been investigated in different populations but less in stroke survivors. Previous studies have focussed on occupational balance among stroke survivors of working age (15–64 years of age), showing they did not perceive they had occupational balance. There is, therefore, a lack of knowledge of how older stroke survivors perceive their occupational balance.

Deforestation is a major issue due to the multitude of negative impacts it has on the environment, forests are for example important carbon sinks, and thus deforestation contributes to climate change. Additionally, inequality is on the rise, both within and between countries. A lot of deforestation occurs in countries with high levels of inequality, such as South American countries. It is therefor

Museums, as we know them, originate from the enlightened modernity with its emphasis on rationality and positivism. Today, however, modernity is highly contested, and the role of the museum has shifted. We argue that historical museum exhibitions operate in the boundary between didactics and experiences, which in turn affects the way exhibitions communicate with its visitors. The aim of this thesi

The path towards this deliverable started at the end of 2019 when RURITAGE gathered with the H2020 funded ROCK project, working on heritage as a means for development in urban areas, at the ILUCIDARe Playground (20.11.2019 | ILUCIDARE Playground: Cracking the future of heritage). At this point, the idea to establish a common vision- a European Vision paper for urban and rural regeneration through

Since 2016, the city of Stockholm has been replacing one of the region’s most important communication hubs, the so-called Slussen (The Lock). This enormous building site is situated within the historical city area of Stockholm. For this reason, archaeologists have been involved throughout the process, mapping a giant historic topographic jigsaw puzzle.

Beliefs, expectations and values are often assumed to drive decisions about climate change adaptation. We tested hypotheses based on this assumption using survey responses from 508 European forest professionals in 10 countries. We used the survey results to identify communication needs and the decision strategies at play, and to develop guidelines on adequate communications about climate change adBeliefs, expectations and values are often assumed to drive decisions about climate change adaptation.

Diffusion MRI is an imaging technique capable of inferring information about the tissue microstructure, based on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Diffusion MRI data can be analysed using tractography, a tool able to represent the structure of the white matter (WM) in the brain. Tractography is commonly used qualitatively, but in this report, an algorithm for quantitative tractography was develope

Waste is a growing environmental problem, especially organic waste that decomposes and generates large emissions of methane. In controlled environments, the methane emissions could instead be used to reduce the use of virgin substances, example fossil fouls. A good waste management is therefore of most importance which sometimes can be difficult to achieve. The waste management is particularly dif

There is a need to transform the urban mobility regime to mitigate climate change and improve living quality in cities. Cargo bikes (CBs) offer a promising solution to replace motorized vehicles, especially for last-mile deliveries and private logistics. They show considerably lower carbon intensity, occupy less space and help reduce air and noise pollution in cities. CB sharing relieves individua

The out-migration of adolescents and its ensuing consequences, such as rising costs in infrastructure, are a central concern for most rural municipalities in Germany today. This thesis is inspired by and based on the youth participation process titled “Jetzt rede ich!” (in English: “I am talking now!”), which aimed to answer the question of how a municipality in northern Germany can keep youth and

The integration of renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power is steadily increasing, which introduces challenges such as voltage fluctuations, reduced system stability, and lower power quality. Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can support the grid by providing services such as frequency regulation and peak shaving, contributing to a more stable and energy-efficient power system.

This thesis deals with local government bodies, especially municipalities, as parties to contracts. It primarily focuses on general problems relating to the competence of a municipality to enter into contracts, and the subsequent legal effects, in light ofthe principles and rules ofpublic and private law. When analysing a contract to which a governmental body is a party, it is necessary to conside

Educational reforms including community-based educational initiatives maintain crucial roles in the processes of democratization in the Middle East. The patterns of reform are diverse and reflect domestic factors as well as varying linkages to global forces. Among the factors driving and defining the effects of reform we find: 1.
