Transpersoner tillhör en marginaliserad grupp som ofta tvingas möta olika typer av diskriminering i samhället. Tidigare forskning visar att förtroendet till samhället är lågt i denna grupp, samt att erfarenheter av bemötande från personal i vården till stor del är av negativ karaktär. Därför ämnade denna studie att undersöka hur unga transpersoner beskriver sina erfarenheter av samt förtroende tilTransgender people are part of a marginalized group that often face discrimination in society. Previous research shows that levels of trust towards society are low in this group, and that experiences of meeting health care professionals are often perceived as negative. This study, therefore, aimed to examine how transgender youth describe their experiences of, and trust towards, transgender health

In recent years, the interest for Sustainable Finance has substantially increased as a result of the investor’s awareness around climate change risks, and the transition to a low-carbon economy. In this thesis, we conduct an empirical analysis to investigate how incorporating environmental criteria in equity investment affects the portfolios' risk and return. The sustainability performance is

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the impact of exchange rate volatility on aggregate foreign trade. We use annual data from 15 Asian countries over 30 years. The exchange rate volatility is derived primarily based on GARCH models and MASD. This thesis applies both the static fixed-effect panel data model and dynamic GMM model, then compares the obtained results and uses the OLS method

Increasing CO₂ emission is considered as the main reason for global warming in the world. One of the reasons for producing CO₂ is using of fossil-based materials in the construction projects. This study intends to assess the using bio-based materials instead of fossil-based materials for the thermal insulation layer of the external walls and roofs. Another focus of this project is using green conc

Denmark and Sweden, as the rest of Europe, face a dilemma of whether to repatriate their citizens who travelled to the so-called Islamic State, from the wretched refugee camps in Syria and Iraq after its fall, and how to deal with those already returned. This thesis examines the two countries’ policy-approaches and discourses to the issue of foreign fighters (FF’s) through a comparative case study

In this thesis the intraday seasonality in the EUR/SEK spot returns are investigated after the returns have been filtered from intraday volatility. This is done with five-minute returns from year 2007 to 2019. The returns are filtered using the Flexible Fourier Form regression and then intraday seasonality is tested using an ARMAX-GARCH model. The results reveal no significant intraday seasonality

Målet med denna uppsats är att bidra med en koncis introduktion till ämnet Galoisteori som kulminerar i ett bevis för olösbarheten av den generella femtegradsekvationen med radikala uttryck. Vidare används den kroppteori som behandlats till att kortfattat diskutera geometriska konstruktioner, där omöjligheten av kubens fördubbling, vinkelns tredelning och cirkelns kvadratur bevisas. Innehållet ochGalois theory unites field theory and group theory to solve some field theoretical problems. The aim of this thesis is to provide a concise introduction to the topic, culminating in the proof of the insolubility of the general quintic equation by radicals. Using the developed field theory, a short discussion about geometric constructions is included, in which the impossibility of duplicating the c

The Member States of the European Union push hard to address modern environmental challenges they face and achieve their environmental targets. However, in doing so, they need to comply with European Union law: the State aid policy and the ‘polluter pays’ principle often seem as obstacles before the Member States to implement their national environmental policies. On the one hand, State aid contro

År 2014 begick 22-åriga Elliot Rodger en attack i Isla Vista, Santa Barbara Kalifornien, som lämnade sex döda och fjorton skadade. Slutligen tog han sitt eget liv.

Via manifestet blev det tydligt att Rodgers syfte med attacken var att döda så må

This paper studies international trade in the case of Portugal as a small and peripheral economy in Europe and its trade integration with the European Union. The purpose of the paper is to find if Portugal’s EU accession in 1986 increased trade with EU members. Common for research on trade effects of EU integration is that ascending countries see significant increases in trade. Theory also suggest

Klimatförändringar är idag ett faktum och påverkar både människor och vår omgivning världen över. I Lund i södra Sverige beräknas både mängden och frekvensen av extrema skyfall att öka i framtiden, som konsekvenser av klimatförändringarna, vilket skapar stor risk för översvämningar. Samtidigt växer befolkningen och fler bostäder behövs men när nya stadsdelar byggs så finns det risk för att permeabThe consequences of climate change affect our environment as well as humanity all over the world. For the city of Lund in southern Sweden, climate change consequences are seen as an increase of both intensity and frequency of extreme rain events, which causes an extensive risk for pluvial flooding. Simultaneously, the population and need for housing are growing. When building new districts, the pe

Förloras luftvägen oavsett trauma leder det till en snabb förlust av livet. Syftet är att belysa anestesisjuksköterskans kompetensområde och hens upplevelse av att arbeta prehospitalt. Metod: En kvalitativ ansats har använts tillBackground: Prehospital intubation is usually more difficult than intra-hospital.

The purpose is to shed light on the Nurse Anesthetist´s area of expertise and her experience of working in a prehospital setting. Method: A qua

Inom det folkrättsliga regelverket för mänskliga rättigheter är förbudet mot tortyr absolut och okontroversiellt. Trots de betydande insatser som gjorts för att bekämpa tortyr, kvarstår det dock som ett allvarligt och utbrett problem, delvis på grund av att faktisk straffrihet förblir vanligt. Universell jurisdiktion har därför identifierats som ett verktyg för att försöka säkerställa straffrättslWithin international human rights law, the prohibition of torture is absolute and uncontroversial. However, despite considerable efforts to end it, torture remains a pervasive problem all over the world, in part due to the widespread impunity for such acts. Many have hence identified universal jurisdiction as one of the ways whereby accountability for torture may be enhanced. The present thesis ex
