The study draws on the theories of Eli Avraham and Philip Kotler, concerning how to improve city images and how to market a specific city among others. The study shows that the city of Umeå in large extent is portrayed in accordance to the ambition which the municipality expressed in the brand platform.Umeå is displayed as an expanding city.

The theoretical framework is based on three theoretical concepts; refugee crisis, identity and coping.The study results show that these children are a very vulnerable group, who were forced to be exposed to several losses and traumas.

Denna studie granskar förvaltningsrättens barnperspektiv i sex domstolsbeslut då ungdomar dömts till tvångsvård enligt 3 § LVU. Studien syftar till att granska om förvaltningsrättens bedömningar är rättsäkra genom att analysera om barnperspektivet beaktas i besluten. Studien syftar även till att studera det tidigare forskningsfältet om tvångsvård av unga för att undersöka vilka effekter tvångsvård kan leda till för den unge. Genom en kritisk diskursanalys har domstolsbesluten analyserats utifrån teorier om makt samt barnkonventionens riktlinjer och föreskrifter. Vidare har tidigare forskning analyserats för att studera tvångsvårdens effekter på ungdomarna.Studien visar att tvångsvård kan leda till negativa effekter för ungdomarna.

I samhället finns flera lagar och föreskrifter för att garantera barn trygga uppväxtvillkor. Trots regelverk kan konstateras en ökning vad gäller barn som far illa. Avgörande för efterlevnaden av fastlagda bestämmelser är bland annat distriktssköterskans, inom barnhälsovården, möjligheter till att uppmärksamma signaler kring barns situation samt att vid behov vidta adekvata åtgärder. Det finns dock flera faktorer som kan vara avgörande för distriktssköterskans ställningstagande. Syftet med studien är att beskriva faktorer som påverkar distriktssköterskans beslut om en anmälan till socialtjänsten om att ett barn far illa.

Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskor som arbetar på barnavårdcentral (BVC-sjuksköterskor) träffar 99,2 procent av alla barn. De har därför en viktig funktion när det gäller att upptäcka och rapportera barn som far illa. Trots anmälningsplikt är anmälningsfrekvensen låg. Det råder brist på studier kring hur det blir för BVC-sjuksköterskor efter att de har gjort en anmälan.Syfte: Att ur ett etiskt perspektiv undersöka BVC-sjuksköterskors upplevelser och erfarenheter efter att de har anmält till socialtjänsten att barn far illa.Metod: Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med sex BVC-sjuksköterskor. Intervjuerna analyserades med kvalitativ innehållsanalys på manifest nivå enligt Graneheim och Lundman.Resultat: BVC-sjuksköterskornas erfarenheter av samarbetet med socialtjänsten varierade.

Ekologisk konsumtion blir allt mer framstående i dagens konsumtionssamhälle, då dess negativa påverkan på miljö, hälsa och arbetsförhållanden är klart mindre än den konventionella konsumtionens avtryck. Livsmedelskonsumtionen står för en fjärdedel av den klimatpåverkan svenska hushåll orsakar och även om medvetenheten kring detta ökat så saknar många människor idag fortfarande kunskap om hur stor negativ påverkan konsumtionen av livsmedel faktiskt har för vår planet. Bananer är en av de allra mest besprutade frukterna och Sverige är det land som konsumerar flest bananer per invånare av alla länder där bananer inte odlas. Bananer är även en av de varor där skillnaden mellan ekologisk och konventionell odling är som störst.Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att genom en kvantitativ undersökning ta reda på om livsmedelsbutiker bör fokusera på faktorerna miljö, hälsa och arbetsförhållanden i sin gröna marknadsföring för att öka försäljningen av ekologiska bananer. Det empiriska materialet har samlats in med hjälp av webbenkäter som skickats ut till en urvalsgrupp.

Syftet med vår uppsats är att ta reda på hur anmälnings- och utredningsprocessen ser ut om man som yrkesverksam pedagog inom skolbarnsomsorgen gjort en anmälan vid misstanke om att ett barn far illa.
