Background: Growing worldwide evidence shows that the experience of sexual coercion is fairly prevalent among young people and is associated with risky sexual behavior thereafter.

The study considers the phenomenon of double alienation, by which is meant the immigrant’s feeling of in a sense being alienated in their native country as well as in the new one. Those elements of their behaviour which are common in the one country or the other are expected there, whereas those which are not are seen as strange and different.

Varför är det viktigt att skapa arkitektur med utgångspunkt i kärlek? Vad innebär det att värdera arkitektur utifrån ett icke-mänskligt perspektiv? Och hur kan hemslöjd lära oss att förhålla oss till vår värld med mer omsorg? Det här examensarbetet undersöker hur vi kan visa mer omsorg för och med arkitektur och argumenterar för att care, eller omsorg, behöver integreras som en självklar del i prWhy is it important to create architecture on the basis of love? What does it mean to value architecture from a non-human perspective? And how can handicraft (hemslöjd) make us relate to our world with more care? This degree project examines how we can show more care towards and through architecture, and argues that care needs to be integrated as an evident part of architecture practice. Through

This thesis examines exchange-rate pass-through (ERPT) to food inflation in Ghana with a focus on domestic transmission channels. Using monthly data, it estimates dynamic reduced-form equations for food inflation and for a set of producer,logistics, transport, and energy-related cost measures. The results show that exchange-rate depreciation passes through meaningfully to food inflation over sever

Almost since the birth of electronic music, composers have been fascinated by the prospect of integrating the human voice with its expressiveness and complexity into electronic musical works. This thesis addresses how performing with responsive technologies in mixed works, i.e. works that combine an acoustic sound source with a digital one, is experienced by participating singers,adopting an appro
