Många kommuner i Sverige har höga ambitioner att antal cyklister ska öka i just deras kommun. Men faktum är att bara två kommuner i hela Sverige, Linköping och Malmö, har lyckats tagit fram en cykelplan som har blivit godkänd av Trafikverket. En av många kommuner som blivit underkända är Södertälje. Att cykelvägar mellan kommuner inte byggs beror i stor del på den bristande finansieringen, både inom kommunen och från Trafikverket. Men också av att kommunens eget planeringsunderlag för regionala cykelvägar är bristfälligt.Syftet med examensarbetet är att utifrån ett arbetspendlingsperspektiv ge underlag för planering av Södertäljes regionala cykelvägar och utgör ett exempel på metod som kan tillämpas vid projektering av cykelvägar över kommungränser.

This master's thesis aims to study the relationship between two publiclibraries and Berättarministeriet, a foundation that offers free writingworkshops for children in areas with high levels of unemployment. Theworkshops are located in spaces that formerly belonged to the libraries.Questions posed in this thesis are How can the relationship between thelibraries and Berättarministeriet be described?, Why did the relationship turnout differently in the two places? and How does the library see itself, inrelation to Berättarministeriet?The theories used are Ögland's taxonomy for relationships between librariesand local organizations, and Folkesson's theory on interaction betweendifferent professional groups, and this was studied through interviews. Theresults showed a relationship without much interaction, beyond a "handover"of children from one place to the other, with time and shortness of staff beingcontributing factors to the low level of collaboration. Regarding the differentrelationships in the two places the results were not conclusive, butnevertheless showed tendancies of issues in the legitimacy dimension, fromthe library towards Berättarministeriet.

Compared to all existing ethnic groups in Sweden, the integration of Somali women has failed the most within the aspect of employment. This bachelor?s thesis investigates the obstacles in the integration of Somali women by focusing on one case, a project named ?Kvinnokraft?, partly financed by the European Socialfund.By interviewing eight key actors, opinions about obstacles in the project have been identified. A theoretical framework that incorporates integration, project research, multi-level governance and intersectionality contributes to explaining difficulties in integrating Somali women.The empirical findings show that there are individual, social and institutional holdbacks. Stereotypical perceptions were common amongst officials, which contributes to a creation of an inferior position in the structures of the society for Somali women.

As the Swedish governments long term goals include a reduction of fossil fuel dependency, increasing pressure is placed upon energy companies to create and develop new solutions for renewable energy. The following case study was done in collaboration with the company Sydved Energileveranser AB and one of their contractors, Enarssons Skogsentreprenad AB. The objective of the study is to examine the bioenergy situation in region of Skåne and evaluate the potential solutions in the region for a forest-fuel assortment, based on a bioenergy-cutting-system. As a part of this study I have compared ordinary manual cuttings done with a chain saw and cuttings made using the new ?bio- energy cutting system?. The cuttings made under both systems were tested in areas near agricultural fields or pasture land in order to maintain an open landscape.

BAKGRUND:Alla som arbetar som förskollärare ska följa läroplanen och har samma arbetsuppgifter oav-sett kön och ålder. Därför ska inte manliga förskollärare ha några för- eller nackdelar gent-emot sina kvinnliga kollegor anser de intervjuade. Enligt vissa undersökningar så utgör männen cirka 3 procent av alla verksamma förskollärare.SYFTE:Vårt syfte med denna uppsats har varit att ta reda på några manliga förskollärares uppfatt-ning om hur det är att arbeta inom ett kvinnodominerat yrke. Vi har frågat om de manliga förskollärarna ser några fördelar eller nackdelar med att vara manlig förskollärare och om de bemöts annorlunda av föräldrar och omgivning jämfört med sina kvinnliga kollegor.METOD:Vi har använt oss av kvalitativ metod med intervju som redskap. Alla de sex män vi har in-tervjuat är utbildade förskollärare och arbetar i förskolan.
