The emergence of social media has changed the power relations and the practices of tourism destination marketing by enabling the co-existence of user generated content and destination marketing organisation’s content, as well as the content co-creation among these actors. Due to the visual nature of tourism the image-focused social media platforms are particularly interesting for the tourism field
Kenya’s rapid, unplanned urban development and rising pressure for cities to adapt to climate change and become more climate change resilient has led to the realisation that more needs to be done. In Nairobi, increasing access to mobile technology and internet access, faster internet speeds, and the growing technology sector could be possible means to facilitate urban climate change resilience (UC
Since its inception, Estonia has been at the forefront of innovation in terms of e-governance and applications of online systems into various aspects of Estonians’ lives. In 2014 Estonia opened up it’s digital borders and launched a digital economic citizenship - e-Residency - available to anyone in the world for using Estonian e-services to register and manage a company online.

Realityserien “Love is blind” är ett socialt experiment som går ut på att olika singlar dejtar varandra utan att kunna se varandras fysiska utseende. Poängen med serien är att paren ska skapa ett starkt emotionellt band som går utöver det fysiska utseendet. Syftet med den här studien är att undersöka hur maskuliniteter konstrueras samt vad de språkliga handlingar som återfinns i programmet säger o
'Silence' in one word grasps the gendered structures within the Danish daycare regime. Through a rearticulation of this notion a detailed inquiry of processes with gendered effects within the public administration of the daycare regime is carried out. Though public daycare is an universal welfare service with political attention where gender-issues are very present, and a general gender-ma
Water for firefighting is often associated with drinking water, due to fire hydrants. Fire hydrants have been installed in towns for a long time and are one of the most common ways for the rescue service to get hold of water for extinguishing fires. This report evaluates the ways that the rescue service uses their water and how the get continuously water to the fire site. Other extinguishing metho
Titel: Möjligheten av implementering av Soft Landings i Sverige Författare: Sebastian Eddin & Nadja Pilav Handledare: Stefan Olander Examinator: Rikard Sundling Närmare 40 procent av den globala energianvändningen är kopplad till byggbranschen och byggrelaterade verksamheter. Trots att flera initiativ pågår både på nationell och internationell nivå från både den svenska regeringen och EU nTitle: Feasibility of the Implementation of Soft Landings in Sweden Authors: Sebastian Eddin & Nadja Pilav Supervisor: Stefan Olander Examiner: Rikard Sundling Close to 40 percent of global energy use is associated with the construction industry and building-related activities. Although several initiatives are underway both on national and international level from both the Swedish governme
Due to the serious problem of greenhouse gas emissions in our atmosphere driving global warming, the need for sustainable initiatives has become an imperative for companies which leads to the necessity of operating sustainably. However, to avoid taking a weak approach to sustainability, it is imperative for companies to carry out a transition involving all three dimensions (environmental, economic
Non-invasive methods for measuring thermal tolerance and thermoregulation in large numbers of individuals under natural environmental conditions are useful to understand the capacity of species to adapt to future climate scenarios. Infrared thermography (IRT) is one such tool in research on thermal adaptation, but concerns have been raised about its reliability, specifically the correlation betwee
Background and aim.The pandemic accelerated green and digital transition may benefit smaller towns. New opportunities include multi-locational living and working, emerging industries, and novel services to attract creative industries. All these developments entail more freedom for people to choose their place of living. Meanwhile, the real estate sector is in dire need of novel space use concepts
Lidar technology was utilized to non-destructively explore the diverse insect life in the Taï virgin forest of Côte d'Ivoire. This study employed an entomological Lidar scanned at different elevation angles, combined with traditional insect trapping at different canopy heights, to investigate the composition and spatial-temporal distribution of insects within the forest canopy. We detected stratif
Production of agricultural biofuels is expected to rise due to increasing climate change mitigation ambitions. Policy interventions promoting targeted bioenergy solutions can be motivated by the large environmental externalities present in agricultural systems and the local context of biomass production co-benefits. Introducing energy crops in crop rotations in arable land with depleted Soil Organ
Future connected vehicles will require high-performance communication technologies for advanced cooperative driving applications such as maneuvering and cooperative perception. mmWave communications can meet the bandwidth requirements of such applications, but the typically harsh propagation conditions of vehicular environments hinder the broad adoption of mmWave devices on cars.

Studies showing that large-scale public health interventions in early life have lastingconsequences are still scarce and rarely disclose the mechanisms. In 1931–1946, the Swedishstate reformed the childbirth institutional system that led to the openings of the new maternitywards and to the gradual decline in home deliveries assisted by midwives. Maternity wardsoffered improved conditions for a mot
Background and ObjectivesThe number of older adults living alone is increasing globally, often with varied risks and resilience capacities. Digital technologies may help mitigate these risks, but their potential remains poorly understood. This review maps evidence on digital technologies in social and health care interventions for older adults living alone, focusing on technology types, functions,
