Börja med resterna för att minska matsvinnet från skolköken Skolköken kan fortsätta minska sitt matsvinn genom att först fokusera på att tillvarata rester och därefter minska överproduktionen. På så sätt kan engagemang väckas och varaktig förändring uppnås. Varje år slängs stora mängder mat. Matproduktion påverkar miljön och ju senare i värdekedjan desto större påverkan har skett. Att minska matOf the food produced for human consumption, one-third is lost or wasted. Food waste has an impact on the environment in several ways and it is thus required to reduce food waste in all parts of the value chain. The objective of this thesis is to identify drivers and barriers for implementing food waste reducing strategies in school kitchens. The study is conducted within the project Göteborgsmod

Objectives. Guatemala exhibits disastrous maternal and child health outcomes, with the rural, indigenous populations disproportionately impacted by high maternal mortality, chronic malnutrition, and low skilled birth attendance. This study investigates maternal care in rural Guatemala through Thaddeus and Maine’s Three Delays Model (1994) to understand delays to maternal health-seeking behaviours

Heterogeneous team collaboration is a fundamental component of Disaster Risk Management (DRM). However, DRM teams face complex-dynamic situations characterised by high disruptions, distributed locations and other factors, which create persistent problems for team collaboration. In these contexts, even the smallest improvement to our understanding has the potential to yield enormous benefits to DRM

Under #metoo-uppropet hösten 2017 uppmärksammades problematiken med sexuella trakasserier på arbetsplatsen. Missnöjet har föranlett frågan om det arbetsrättsliga skyddet mot sexuella trakasserier behöver ses över för att säkerställa ett effektivt skydd. Uppsatsen utreder gällande rätt med utgångspunkt i DL, AML samt LAS, för att sedermera konkretisera vilket typer av problem som kan identifieras iOne of the subjects of #metoo late 2017 was the problem of sexual harassment in the workplace. Questions were asked whether or not the current labor legislation could ensure sufficient protection against further sexual harassment. This thesis investigates the established law, more precisely The Discrimination Act (DL), The Work Environment Act (AML) and The Employment Protection Act (LAS), in orde

The present customer based and data driven world of business, together with the evolving social and technological trends continue to drive product complexity and product variety to a new height, one that is characterized by product customization. In the product realization pro-cess, the assembly floor remains the most vital part of the manufacturing process; to cope with the rigorous demands of pr

Food waste, within the wider phenomenon of resource waste, has become a global issue due to its direct impact on climate change. Food redistribution via food banks is highlighted as a waste reduction strategy because it not only tackles the environmental impact from food production, but also provides food security to vulnerable people by redistributing the discarded food from food industries to so

The Swedish migration agency (Migrationsverket) believes that newly sharpened rules for asylum will increase the number of undocumented immigrants choosing to stay after getting a rejected asylum application. Since it is illegal to hire undocumented immigrants many are being "payed under the table" or receive welfare or aid from NGO:s. This essay investigates what one NGO, the Church of

Våldtäkter som ett krigsvapen i väpnade konflikter utgör en av historiens stora tystnader. Det var först under 1990-talet, genom de internationella krigsförbrytartribunalerna i forna Jugoslavien (ICTY) och Rwanda (ICTR), som det internationella samfundet uttryckligen erkände våldtäkt som brott mot mänskligheten. Den Internationella brottmålsdomstolen, ICC, grundades den 1 juli 2002. Det var dockRape as a weapon of war in armed conflicts is one of the history’s great silences. It was not until the 1990’s, through the International Criminal Tribunals for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY) and Rwanda (ICTR), that the international community explicitly recognized rape as a crime against humanity. The International Criminal Court, ICC, was established on 1 July 2002. However, it was not until 201

Bland de mest kraftfulla händelser som människor har observerat är gammablixtar. Blixtarna är korta utbrott av gammastråalning som ibland dyker upp i rymden. Forskare har länge misstänkt att kollisioner mellan neutronstjärnor ligger bakom en kategori av blixtar, de korta gammablixtarna. För några år sedan bekräftades forskarnas misstankar. De kunde då, med det nya LIGO-observatoriet, observera graShort gamma-ray bursts are often observed at large spatial offsets from their host galaxies. Neutron star mergers in double neutron star binaries have also recently been confirmed as a progenitor of short gamma-ray bursts (Abbott et al. 2017). We attempt to constrain uncertainties in the evolution of burst-producing neutron star binaries by generating a distribution of burst offsets from the neutr

Sammanställningen av resultatet visade att Bäljane å har en relativt god status med undantag för mängden organiskt material samt att ån är starkt färgad och starkt grumlat. Lakvattnet visade däremot innehålla signifikant högre halter, i förhållande till Bäljane ås resultat, för alla undersökta parametrar. Syftet med arbetet var att undersöka om Bäljane å är en möjlig recipient för ett renat lakvatThe aim of this bachelor thesis was to investigate whether or not Bäljane stream is a possible recipient for treated leachate from a Swedish municipal solid waste plant. This report will see how the current environmental status is in the river and how it will be affected in the future if emissions of treated leachate occur. Earlier studies regarding the environmental status in the river was evalua

Sedan jag började gå till kyrkan på eget initiativ har jag ofta fascinerats av musiken och hur stor del av gudstjänsten som ägnas till sång och musik. Under musikstudier på gymnasiet, folkhögskola och musikhögskola har jag också tyckt mig urskilja att många musiker har en bakgrund i kyrkan. Även de tidiga kompositörerna, såsom Bach, var själv kyrkomusiker. Denna studie syftar till att undersöka huSince I started attending church on my own initiative, I have often been fascinated by the music and the amount of space it gets in the service. During my music studies at the upper secondary school, folk high school and music college, I have also found myself distinguishing that many musicians come from a background in the church. Even the early composers, such as Bach, were church musicians. Thi

Based on self-perceived stories described in literature and documentary films, this study aims at analyzing how individuals, from an attachment theory perspective, feel that have been affected by growing up in a family in which one or both parents have an intellectual disability. Since the purpose of the study was to understand a context rather than explain and generalize it, a qualitative documen

The increase of shrub extent in arid and semi-arid environments is reducing the species richness all over the globe. This process of shrub encroachment was found to result from changes in anthropogenic land use, especially from too high or too low grazing intensity. The Great Alvar on the island Öland, Sweden, is a unique grassland ecosystem with a high species richness. Changes in land use patte

Sierra Leone struggles with one of the world’s highest rates of teenage pregnancy. Reducing the rate of teenage pregnancy and ensuring access to education for all are key to achieving gender equality and empowering women and girls. This is not only a top priority for the government but also an essential part of ensuring the human rights of the population and achieving inclusive development, as rec

Many mainstream brands have started to engage in sustainability practices and are willing to inform consumers a

Då smarttelefoner på kort tid har blivit oumbärliga verktyg i många människors vardag har frågor kring hur användare psykiskt påverkas av dem väckts. Studier har funnit samband mellan smarttelefonanvändning och psykisk ohälsa, men i många fall baserat på bristfälliga data. Den här studien syftade att vidare undersöka sambandet mellan smarttelefonanvändning och upplevd psykisk ohälsa samt att underSmartphones have rapidly become indispensable tools in everyday life, leading to questions about their psychological impact on users. Studies have found associations between smartphone use and mental health problems, but in many cases based on insufficient data. This study’s purpose was to further explore the relationship between smartphone use and experienced mental health problems, and to determ

Few studies regarding this particular phenomenon has been found thus the need of exploring it further. The aim of this thesis is to explore social workers o

Abstract Today, the reproduction of the spaces is mostly realized through urban transformation processes. These processes are in evidence around all over the world. Urban transformation is an ambiguous umbrella definition that includes different actors, different processes and different fields. Beyond spatial changes, these transformations also affect social relationships and networks, which are v

De flesta svenskar äger en smartphone, en ägodel som normalt täcks via hemförsäkring. Smartphones ingår i uppemot 50 % av alla skador som rapporteras till försäkringsbolaget Hedvig (Hedvig, 2019). Vissa experter rapporterar att så mycket som 40 % av alla smartphoneärenden som anmäls till försäkringsbolagen är bedrägliga.
