Purpose: AI is positioned in management research as a time-saving augmentation, a promise that should resonate most strongly with firms whose culture is built on time efficiency. Yet that very orientation may be what makes the technology hard to absorb. Through a single-case study of a small professional service firm integrating AI, this thesis examines how that tension unfolds in practice. We ask
I Sverige idag uppskattas det att 16 procent konsumerar alkohol på ett sätt som bedöms som riskbruk. Detta är något som kan ge upphov till en rad olika konsekvenser, såsom sjukdomar, skador och missbruk.

The carbon emissions from tourism transportation have been a significant environmental issue. Studies have tried to investigate the impacts of sustainability initiatives provided by tourism transportation on travellers, but the target group and the types of transportation are limited. Therefore, the thesis aims to understand the environmental value co-creation process of sustainability options pro
This thesis investigates how the experience of founding a youth-led social-innovation project can enhance young people’s agency for sustainable development, through a qualitative single-case study of Ashoka Belgium’s 2023 Youth for Change (Y4C) programme. Grounded in a social-constructivist, abductive logic, the study uses semi-structured interviews and mobilises three strands of scholarship—Socia

How we behave in daily life has an impact on environmental emergencies. In the decisions that we take every day, decisions that are important for the climate, the built environment has a vital but not so noticed part. The project Urban design and everyday life choices recognises the built environment as a co-producer of climate ethics.

The cost efficiency of the biorefining process can be improved by extracting high-molecular-mass hemicelluloses from lignocellulosic biomass prior to ethanol production. These hemicelluloses can be used in several high-value-added applications and are likely to be important raw materials in the future. In this study, steam pretreatment in an alkaline environment was used to pretreat the lignocellu
BACKGROUND: Policies that empower individuals and communities may be appropriate for public health, and more broadly.
