This development has resulted in the rather new and unexplored area of retailer value, which this study further aimed to explore.

Denna uppsats handlar om hur IT-baserade hjälpmedel för personer med kognitiva funktionsnedsättningar kan vara en resurs och ett medel för att uppnå större självständighet och delaktighet. Uppsatsen behandlar vilka hinder eller möjligheter det kan finnas för ett IT-baserat hjälpmedel att nå ut till individen. Syftet med studien har varit att ta reda på hur utbredd kunskapen och kännedomen är dels om kognitiva funktionsnedsättningar (som beror på psykosproblematik), dels om IT-baserade hjälpmedel för målgruppen bland tre yrkeskategorier. De yrkeskategorier vi valt för vår studie är: enhetschefer, förskrivare och kostnadsansvariga. Vår studie redogör även för hur olika styrmedel i den socialpolitiska och ekonomiska kontexten påverkar diskursen om hjälpmedel.För insamling av det empiriska materialet valde vi en kvalitativ intervjumetod.

The release of green house gases and the environmental impacts humans have on the environment are huge and might cause irreversible changes to our earth. Meat is considered to have large impacts on the environment, especially beef meat and therefore there have lately been considerable discussions on the sustainable level of meat consumption and production.

Fattiga kvinnor fokuseras ofta i internationellt utvecklingsarbete då de anses överlägsna män i att generera såväl förbättrad hälsa som ekonomisk utveckling. Feministisk kritik av tidigare insatser som främst sett till kvinnors reproduktiva roll har gjort att empowermentbegreppet idag är centralt: kvinnors villkor ska definieras på gräsrotsnivå, såväl praktiska som sociopolitiska behov ska mötas och kvinnor därmed ges förutsättningar att göra strategiska livsval. Kvalitativa intervjuer med kvinnor i Svenska Getbanken i Uganda genomfördes i syfte att undersöka utvecklingsprojektets inverkan på kvinnornas livssituation, och på deras självuppfattning. Efter tematisk analys visar resultatet bl a att kvinnornas inkomster gynnar familjen, att deras självtillit växt då isolering i hemmet bytts mot socialt stöd och ny kunskap, och att de något ökat sitt inflytande i familjen. En kritik är att kvinnornas totala arbetsbörda ökat, då projektet inte beaktar strukturella frågor, som t ex könsarbetsdelning.

Our study aims to examine whether managers in elderly care are working from a salutogenic approach to create a dignified life for the residents. By this we are trying to find out how you look at life in dignity and what meaning it has, what similarities and what differences there are. We also want to explore what they want to achieve with their work and what they do to enable it. The questions we asked ourselves what the salutogenic approach is for managers working in nursing homes. How do they look at a decent life and we ask ourselves the question of the salutogenic approach is just a "buzzword" in a working man always had or there are real differences? The method we have chosen to use is a web-based questionnaire that we sent to our sample.

Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) is an unconventional model of agriculture expected to contribute to a more sustainable food supply and a sustainable landscape; the development of rural areas; a stronger relationship between producer and consumer and a healthier diet. This study, with a focus on food production and the link between the producer and consumer, describes the origin and current development of CSA in Sweden, including the prerequisites for CSA in a Swedish context. Organizations and entrepreneurs working with CSA and related projects are identified and interviewed. The notion of CSA in Sweden is still in its infancy, but a rapidly growing interest currently can be detected. The fact that the identified CSAs are found in different Swedish regions with variations in degree of urbanization and intensity of agriculture indicates that the prerequisites are there for the concept to grow, both in rural as well as urban areas.

Våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer är en allvarlig och omfattande problematik som förekommer i alla länder världen runt, oavsett samhällsklass, etnicitet och religion. Mäns våld mot kvinnor utövas oftast på både fysisk, psykisk samt sexuell nivå. Konsekvenserna är förkrossande för kvinnan och det kan då vara nästan omöjligt för henne att bryta sig loss från förhållandet. Syftet med denna studie är att belysa vad som gör att en kvinna slutligen bryter upp ur våldets mönster och lämnar sin våldsamma man för gott. Vi vill särskilt granska vilka verktyg som gör att en kvinna får rätt förutsättningar till att återskapa maktutövningen över sitt liv.
