The Sudanese revolution of 2019 was shaped in large part by the contributions of youth to collective action. Many of these youth have since been displaced by the ongoing Sudanese war. This study aims to explore how these youths’ emotion orientations towards political engagement have been affected by experiences of war and displacement. This will be explored by comparing how these youth convey thei
The objective of this study is to explore the relationship between sleep disruption and increasing nightly temperatures. This has been done by comparing a normal year (2024) with a year characterized by extreme heat events (2018). The study intends to tell the difference in nights of insufficient sleep between the reference years. In Sweden, the relationship has been acknowledged by affected autho
This thesis examines why the United States recognised Kosovo’s independence in 2008 while consistently refusing to support Chechen self-determination across two wars and more than a decade of conflict. Both cases involved secessionist movements, significant civilian suffering, and comparable normative claims, yet produced opposite recognition outcomes. This divergence constitutes a central puzzle
Electricity demand in southern Sweden is expected to increase significantly in the coming decades. More electric cars, cleaner industries, and the phase-out of fossil fuels will require much larger amounts of electricity than today. At the same time, Skåne currently produces only part of the electricity it consumes and depends heavily on electricity imports from other regions and neighbouring coun
This thesis investigates women’s experiences of fear in relation to men’s violence against women in Swedish society. The aim is to highlight how fear of male violence shapes women’s everyday lives and the limitations it imposes. The background contextualizes women’s historical position in Sweden from the 19th century to the #MeToo movement, alongside the contemporary context of fear. A qualitative
Since the rise of ChatGPT, millions of people are using artificial intelligence nowadays, and not only for task-aligned use but also for companionship. Since the launch of Replika companionship chatbot in 2017, millions of people have signed up for the platform, where they use the chatbots for different purposes – friend, sibling, mentor or romantic partner. This thesis investigates the lived expe
Research question: How do managers interpret their own role in AI-related change, and how can the identified approaches be understood? Purpose of study: The purpose of this study is to provide a more nuanced understanding of managerial roles in AI-related organizational change by examining how managers reason about their own role and the different approaches to AI-related change that emerge in th
Mental wellness environments a thesis on how a village-like district within a city context supports mental wellbeing. The awareness of mental health and wellbeing has lately increased, revealing rising levels of stress and anxiety. In addition, after the COVID‑19 pandemic people became more reliant on social media and remote work, which changed how we interact with local communities and exposed m
Inledning: Organisatoriskt lyssnande lyfts allt oftare fram som en central förutsättning för dialog, delaktighet och organisatoriskt lärande. Samtidigt visar forskning att många organisationer präglas av en obalans där fokus främst ligger på att sprida information snarare än att skapa förutsättningar för genuint lyssnande. Tidigare forskning har visat att lyssnande påverkas av organisatoriska stru
Waste is one of our largest environmental problems. In its wake follows waste crime that has become a growing societal challenge in every imaginable level in our society. The purpose of this bachelor thesis is to examine if the municipal waste organisations in Scania experience any criminality, organized and unorganized, in the waste trade and how they take crime prevention measures. To illuminate
Osäkerheter inom geotekniska förutsättningar har en stor påverkan på bygg- och anläggningssektorn. För att ta reda på de faktiska förhållandena i marken före byggnation behöver en geoteknisk undersökning utföras. Om den geotekniska undersökningen är bristfällig kan det leda till förseningar, ökade kostnader samt behov av kompletterade åtgärder under byggskedet. Syftet med studien var att analyseUncertainties within geotechnical conditions has a large impact on the construction and civil engineering sector. To determine the actual conditions in the ground before construction, a geotechnical investigation needs to carry out. If the geotechnical investigation is insufficient, it can lead to delays, cost increases and the need for additional measures during the construction phase. The purp
Agricultural intensification is a major driver of biodiversity loss, which highlights the need for effective policy instruments that promote sustainable farming. Therefore, the EUs common agricultural policy (CAP) plays a major role, especially the voluntary eco-schemes that are designed to incentivize such practices. However, the effectiveness of these policies depends both on farmer participatio
I följande examensarbete undersöks den morfologiska kustlinjeutvecklingen vid den västra stranden i Ystad Sandskog med fokus på kusterosion och längsgående sedimenttransport. Kuststräckan är historiskt och fortsatt erosionsutsatt och ligger i nära anslutning till bebyggelser, infrastruktur och naturreservatet Sandskogen. För att motverka kustens tillbakadragning har flera kustskyddsåtgärder implem
Digitaliseringens utveckling har förändrat konsumtionsmönster och gjort Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) till en allt vanligare betalningslösning inom e-handeln, särskilt bland unga vuxna och studenter. Trots att tidigare forskning främst fokuserat på ekonomiska och tekniska aspekter av BNPL, såsom ökad konsumtion och skuldsättning, är kunskapen begränsad kring hur konsumenter själva upplever och motiver
Det moderna arbetslivet har under de senaste åren genomgått omfattande förändringar i riktning mot ökad flexibilitet, där distans- och hybridarbete blivit en etablerad del av hur arbete organiseras. Utvecklingen har inneburit att ett större ansvar för planering, strukturering och gränsdragning i arbetet lagts på individen. För unga anställda i början av sin karriär kan det innebära särskilda utmanIn recent years, working life has undergone significant changes towards greater flexibility, with remote and hybrid work becoming an established part of how work is organized. This development has placed greater responsibility for planning, structuring and managing work boundaries on the individual. For young employees at the beginning of their careers, this may present particular challenges, as t
As environmental demands increase, the requirements for the design and production of aseptic packaging increase as well. To meet these new requirements, an optimisation framework is to be developed, but traditional - gradient based - approaches struggle to handle the non-smooth nature of the problem. Instead, this thesis aims at building a framework where the underlying problem is considered a bla
Tropical peatlands in Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, represent important terrestrial carbon stores and support highly diverse tropical rainforest ecosystems with significant ecological, hydrological, and climatic functions. However, decades of drainage development, deforestation, plantation expansion, land-use change, and recurrent fire have contributed to extensive peatland degradation across the
Freeze-thaw cycling is a major durability issue in cement-based materials, as water within its pores can freeze, expand and generate internal stresses that contribute to cracking and material degradation. Understanding how pores, water distribution and deformation evolve during repeated temperature cycles is therefore important for improving the durability of these materials. This thesis investiga

Syfte: Studien syftar till att undersöka hur företag arbetar med trendbaserad marknadsföring på TikTok, i relation till företags varumärkesidentitet. Studien syftar även ti
När ett nedslag gräver upp och modifierar Mars yta, genom att medföra material från djupare delar till ytan, öppnar det fönster ner till äldre geologi. Att försöka förstå ytegenskaper på Mars och hur källmaterialet beter sig vid ett nedslag kräver en metod från flera perspektiv. Tidigare forskning har främst fokuserat på ejecta och ejektamorfologi som en indikator på ytegenskaper. Däremot kan ävenWhen an impact excavates and modifies the Martian surface, by bringing deeper lying material to the surface, it opens a window into past geology. Trying to understand surface properties on Mars and how target material behaves during impact requires a multi-view approach. Previous research has focused mainly on ejecta emplacement and morphologies as a proxy for surface properties. However, interior
