Implementation of renewable energy in the Republic of Moldova : society and landscape in transition
The Republic of Moldova, situated in eastern Europe and a former part of the Soviet Union, is now experiencing
a phase of transition in both society and landscape. They have hardly any fossil depots and
are currently dependent on Russian gas, with 97% of their energy needs imported. The new elected
government wants to move towards the EU and this is generally seen as the way to grow and reduce
poverty. Security in the energy sector is important and one tool is to increase the use of renewable
energy sources.
Through interviews, texts, and visits I have studied the implementation of renewable energies (RE) in
Moldova through a society development perspective. The study has aimed to investigate the sociotechnical
complexity of this subject and to discuss the potentials and way of dealing with the subject in
the specific cultural context of Moldova.
Post-harvest losses in fruit supply chains : a case study of mango and avocado in Ethiopia
Food insecurity is a great problem worldwide and Ethiopia is one of the sub-saharan countries that are suffering from poverty and food insecurity and a large part of the population are living in a state of undernourishment. To reduce these problems, a successful horticulture production can be an important factor. Compared to other crops, fruit production in Ethiopia has not been a large part of the agricultural sector. However, the demand on the domestic market is increasing as well as the production for avocado and mango. To increase food security it is important to focus on ways to decrease post-harvest losses of food products and not only have the productivity of agriculture in focus.
Wetland development in the context of ecotourism : a conceptual design proposal for a wetland site in Lake Victoria, Kenya
The travelling sector is expanding worldwide, which puts all destinations under pressure to have a functioning
social system and good resources to manage the problems and take advantage of the opportunities that the
tourism sector can offer a community. The area around Kisumu in Kenya, like much of Africa, tourism can
simultaneously ensure a stable financial future while it removes, as a result of a growing population, more and
more of the scenery that many tourists want to experience. Responsible travel to natural areas that promotes
conservation of the environment and improves the welfare of local people is what defines ecotourism. A
concept that implies a closed cycle, where visitor?s needs are met in balance with what can be given back,
without risking creating imbalances in society.
Along the coast of Lake Victoria, valuable papyrus wetlands provide Kisumu vital ecosystem services
such as water purification, climate adaptation while it also serves as a reservoir for biodiversity.

Mode & Barn
Det blir allt vanligare idag att de stora modehusen skapar barnkollektioner. Internationellt sätt har nästan varje stor designer redan gett sig in på barnklädesmarknaden. Jag valde dock att inte fokusera på den internationella marknaden utan undersöka hur den såg ut i Sverige med svenska modeföretag som hade olika positioner. Jag plockade ut ett antal märken som skiljde sig markant i målgrupp. Företagen jag har valt att ha med till studien är Acne, KappAhl och Polarn O.
