In this essay, Risk and crisis management Conservation policy and normalization production, I discuss how societies, communities and individuals are responsible for the handling of catastrophes and crises. Risk and vulnerability analyzes are parts of modern risk and crisis management. The purpose of these analyzes is to prepare people and organizations for any crises. For managing this it is necessary to comprehend, be able to change mindset in creating concrete tasks and inform others.The purpose of this essay is to analyze modern risk and crisis management by studying empirical material, such as interviews, observations and literature. My aim is to combine these materials and study how they cooperate.One of the findings in this essay is that risk and vulnerability analyzes are of great complexity. These analyzes require a discussion in order to identify the development of the society's crisis management system, as well as the continued support of the individuals that have a responsibility for preventing and preparing their organizations..

Information about the risks involved shall be distributed to the people living in the area nearby to potentially dangerous installation. Swedish law stipulates strict requirements on what information should be supplied, but the law itself does not give any guidance on presentation. The main purpose of the study is to give recommendations on how to improve the information brochures. Within the study, eight people working with risk information have been interviewed and seven different risk information brochures have been studied. Also, a theoretical analysis and a practical experiment were performed using brochures from two municipalities.

Bakgrund: Tidig graviditetsf?rlust ?r en vanlig men ofta tabubelagd h?ndelse som kan medf?ra djup sorg, skuld och oro hos drabbade kvinnor. De har ofta ett stort behov av emotionellt st?d, tydlig information och ett empatiskt bem?tande fr?n sjuksk?terskan. Detta st?ller h?ga krav p? personcentrerad omv?rdnad.

I samband med en ?kad efterfr?gan och st?rre behov av fossilfri energi kommer storskaliga solcellsanl?ggningar p? mark att spela en allt viktigare roll. Samtidigt kr?vs ett h?nsynstagande till lokalbefolkningen som f?r anl?ggningen placerad i sin n?rhet. Tidigare forskning har visat att b?de ekonomiska, sociala och milj?m?ssiga aspekter g?r att koppla till n?rboendes acceptans.

Ungas involvering i g?ngkriminalitet har ?kat markant i Sverige under de senaste ?ren och utg?r en v?xande samh?llsutmaning med l?ngtg?ende konsekvenser f?r trygghet och social sammanh?llning. Syftet med denna scoping review ?r att sammanst?lla och kartl?gga befintlig forskning om unga personer i eller p? v?g in i g?ngkriminalitet, med fokus p? vilka risk- och skyddsfaktorer som identifieras i litteraturen. Studien syftar ocks? till att unders?ka hur dessa faktorer beskrivs i relation till socialt arbete och f?rebyggande insatser.

All companies face risk in their daily business. Internationalised companies tend to experience higher risk due to for example unfamiliar business environment than companies that act only on the national market. Estonia became independent as late as in 1991 and is therefore a new interesting market for many companies in neighbouring countries like Sweden. Risks that are most apparent for an internationalised company are political risk, currency risk, capital and interest rate risk, business risk and credit risk. Our intention of this study was to find out how Swedish companies acting on the Estonian market faced the different risks when entering the Estonian market and how they value the risks today.

Modeindustrin st?r f?r n?rvarande inf?r betydande h?llbarhetsutmaningar p? grund av dess skadliga milj?p?verkan. Den h?r studien unders?ker hur blockkedjetekniken kan anv?ndas f?r att ?ka transparensen i modef?retagens v?rdekedja. Genom att utforska blockkedjans potential f?r att fr?mja h?llbarhet och ansvarsskyldighet inom branschen syftar forskningen till att belysa innovativa l?sningar f?r att hantera milj?h?nsyn och etiska metoder. Viktiga aspekter som tas upp i studien ?r bland annat motiven bakom inf?randet av blockkedjeteknik i v?rdekedjor inom mode, hur dynamiken i leveranskedjan och principerna f?r cirkul?r ekonomi p?verkar behovet av ?kad transparens samt vilka konsekvenser inf?randet av blockkedjor f?r f?r h?llbarheten i modesektorn.

Bakgrund: 550 barn bed?ms vara i behov av palliativ v?rd i Sverige ?rligen, f?r sjukdomar som bland annat inkluderar cancer, infektion, HIV, neurodegenerativa eller progressiva metabola sjukdomar, och sv?ra kroniska tillst?nd med h?g risk f?r livshotande komplikationer, exempelvis CP och genetisk missbildning. Palliativ v?rd av barn kan bedrivas i olika milj?er, b?de i hemmet, i slutenv?rden och p? hospice. Vidare inneb?r den palliativa v?rden av barn ett holistiskt arbetss?tt, d?r kunskap kring barns utveckling och f?rm?ga till f?rst?else och kommunikation p? ett begripligt s?tt ?r av vikt.

When constructing a road the risk of emission of substances from the used materials to the surrounding environment has to be evaluated. The aim of this study is to present a proposal for how to evaluate the risk of contamination as a result of emission from the materials in a road construction. The study is based on literature studies, an inventory and a questionnaire that examines how experts in governmental agencies, industries and universities evaluate the risk of contamination. The inventory indicates that guidelines for evaluating the risk of emission from secondary materials in a road construction do not exist. The conclusions from the questionnaire are: that there is no common way to evaluate the risk of contamination as a result of emission from materials in the road construction, there is no uniform interpretation of the terms "minor" and "significant" risk of contamination and that the evaluation is subjective.

The purpose of this Bachelor Thesis is to investigate whether the introduction of IFRS, and in particular IAS 40 regarding fair value accounting of investment property, has lead to increased financial risk for Swedish real estate companies. Financial risk is measured using several financial risk ratios during the period 2000-2009, effectively covering the period before and after the introduction in 2005. The financial risk is found to actually have decreased significantly in comparison with the control group. The relative decrease supports the notion of a factor unique to the real estate companies at least partially driving the change, possibly IAS 40. However, this change is, due to the statistic method employed, only an indication of the direction of change, and consequently interpretations of the magnitude of change cannot be made.

This paper is a study how students at a high school in Falun, Sweden, estimates theirperformance in an upcoming math test which is then compared with the actual grade thestudent performed. The students who participated also answered questions related to ?risksituations? to examine whether there is a correlation between how students estimate theirperformance in the context and their risk behavior, and if the students act like economicmodels assume. In agreement with previous studies, the boys in the survey tended to beoverconfident in their performance. The girls in the study were neither over- norunderconfident in her performance and no significant difference in the estimation of one'sperformance between the sexes could be proven.

Looking at the debate on nuclear power in Sweden, the issue of risk is central to understanding the difficulties in resolving differences between proponents and opponents. I sought to answer the research question: "how is the concept of risk constructed in the nuclear power debate in Sweden?" Four main aspects of risk construction were defined and investigated to identify differences between sides in the debate. Through a qualitative study of the debate and its actors I found clear differences in respect to all four aspects of risk construction. First, the perception of nuclear power as a "normal risk" is common among nuclear opponents in contrast to a largely probabilistic view among proponents.

Grunda mjukbottnar i Sveriges kustvatten utg?r biologiskt v?rdefulla milj?er med funktioner som n?ringsoms?ttning, erosionsskydd och viktiga livsmilj?er f?r fisk. Trots detta ?r dessa habitat kraftigt hotade av ?kad exploatering kopplad till bebyggelse, turism och infrastruktur. Studien syftar till att unders?ka hur svenska kustkommuner hanterar skyddet av grunda mjukbottnar i f?rh?llande till befintlig lagstiftning och nationella riktlinjer.
