An thematic analysis were used to analyze documents and interviews.The result shows that a new comprehensive plan generally takes more consideration to regional targets of development than older plans. The consideration varies a lot between the municipalities of Västerbotten County and it can be explained by many reasons. The informant?s points out that lack of resources- and competence plus a deficient dialog between municipalities and regional organizations are the mainly causes.Keywords; regional development, comprehensive planning, strategy for regional development, regional development program, land-use planning.

The aim of this paper is to define the perceived consumer values that physical record stores create in order to compete with other distribution technologies. A qualitative method has been used, based on interviews with managers of three records stores in Stockholm. Interviews with their customers have been conducted also. The content has been analyzed with passable theories and the two sources have been compared when adequate.The conclusion of the study is that the physical record stores create many different consumer values, and that many of these are hard to transfer to other distribution technologies. One of the most important values for the consumer is that the personnel have a broad knowledge about music.

Collaborative planning ? a comparative study of theory and practice Why There is today, according to my experience, a growing interest and demand for a more inclusive and transparent planning process. Also, if we are going to be able to reach a truly sustainable society it is my belief that there is a need for a more integrated collaboration between different actors. Where the social, economic and ecological values can influence and benefit from each other. The question then is, how can the planning system accommodate that kind of collaboration? Purpose My aim for this thesis has been to study a selection of the theoretical work that exist about collaborative planning.

Syftet med arbetet har varit att analysera hur olika stadsplaneideal direkt eller underförstått framhävs i svensk stadsplaneringsdebatt och stadsbyggande samt att undersöka vilka planideal som förespråkas. Den svenska stadsplaneringsdebatten har analyserats utifrån ett urval av artiklar ifrån de tio senaste årens nummer av tidsskrifterna Arkitekten, Arkitektur, Plan och Nordisk arkitekturforskning, vilka kan sägas utgöra den huvudsakliga arenan för den fackmässiga stadsbyggnads- och planeringsdebatten i Sverige. Resultatet av analysen har jämförts med tre aktuella och omdebatterade stadsbyggnadsprojekt i syfte att undersöka vilka kopplingar som finns mellan dagens debatt och aktuellt stadsbyggande. Resultatet har även jämförts och diskuterats utifrån den historiska stadsplaneutvecklingen av den svenska staden för att undersöka hur olika stadsplaneideal påverkat stadsbyggandet i Sverige under olika tidsperioder samt i vilken utsträckning de stadsplaneideal som förekommer i dagens debatt hämtar sin inspiration ifrån historiska förebilder. Utifrån stadsplaneringsdebatten går det att utläsa två inriktningar i dagens stadsplaneideal. Dels den täta staden som hämtar inspiration ifrån den traditionella svenska kvartersstaden och motiveras med att den täta staden är den mest hållbara stadsformen, dels ett sökande efter nya alternativa stadsformer som inte kännetecknas av ett specifikt planeideal men som ser en risk i att föreslå en specifik planstruktur framför andra och att ett planideal per automatik skulle vara mer hållbart än ett annat.

I rapporten presenteras två analysmetoder, Jan Gehls och Gordon Cullens. Analysmetoderna appliceras på tre offentliga mötesplatser i Eskilstuna, Fröslunda centrum, Smörtorget samt Sveaplan. Utifrån resultaten från analyserna har förslag till förbättring utformats. Gordons Cullens analysmetod baseras på den visuella upplevelsen av staden samt upplevelsen av att röra sig i den. Jan Gehls analysmetod baseras på aktiviteterna som äger rum i staden samt vilka möjligheter det finns att skapa kontakt. Analysmetoderna har sedan jämförts med tanke på skillnader, överrensstämmelser samt applicerbarheten. Platserna som analyseras är olika gällande läge, utformning, användning och historia.

Growing old should be the golden years of your life, being able to do whatever you want to do. Instead these years are often combined with both physical and psychological illness. Neither the body or mind are what they once were. It has been shown through empirical studies that many elderly people don?t have any social support at all.

Tullkammarkajen är idag ett hamn- och industriområde beläget vid ån Nissan i Halmstad. Det utmärkta läget i staden med närhet till både centrum, järnvägsstation och vatten gör området synnerligen attraktivt. Men med dagens markanvändning utnyttjas inte kvaliteterna fullt ut. Utmaningen består därför i att planera ett nytt bostadsområde med en trivsam utemiljö och en kaj som är öppen för allmänheten. Den nya stadsdelen, Tullkammarkajen, får ett blandat innehåll men med en dominans av bostäder. Viss etablering av handel, kontor och service ökar attraktiviteten och ger liv och rörelse i området.

Detta examensarbete är gjord i Södertälje Centrum. Arbetet är indelat i tre delar. Första delen tar upp allmän information och fakta om Södertälje. Andra delen hittar man den analys som jag arbetat med, det vill säga Ortsanalys. Denna del avslutas med en slutsats som står som bakgrund för den tredje delen av arbetet, förslagsdelen.

I DAG RÅDER ETT STORT OMVANDLINGSTRYCK på de före detta industriområdena längs inloppet till Stockholm och Mälarens stränder. Dessa platser utgör attraktiva tomter för bostadsbyggande och många områden har byggts om eller är under omvandling. Ett av dessa är Lövholmen vid Liljeholmen. Här finner man idag bland annat Beckers hundraåriga fabriksanläggning med avsevärda kultur- historiska värden. EXAMENSARBETET HAR LETT FRAM till ett planförslag som visar på hur en kommande förtätning av planområdet kan utformas. Förslaget grundas i inventerings- och analys-resultat samt på tidigare ställningstaganden från bland annat Stockholms stadsbyggnadskontor. PLANFÖRSLAGET INNEBÄR I STORA DRAG att områdets be-varandevärda bebyggelse utgör stommen och ny samtida bebyggelse införs i medveten kontrast.

This paper examines the opportunities and challenges of integrating conservation practice and the circular economy into practical planning processes. In recent years, the discussion of circular economy and its relevance in the sustainability debate has intensified. According to the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, the transition to a circular economy is crucial to achieving the national and international environmental and climate goals as well as the global goals in Agenda 2030. Parallel to this, there is a long established heritage discourse that emphasizes the importance of preserving buildings and cultural environments as part of our cultural heritage. These two discourses have common goals, but they differ in how they present their respective arguments.

"Landscapes for Spontaneous Sport" The main aim with this degree thesis is to show how planning and design of urban space can promote spontaneous sport. Public health and urban life would benefit from re-introducing the sport and physical activity in the townscape. The study can be seen as an "inspiration book" that focuses on the connection between sports and landscape architecture. The starting-point for the discussion is the fact that the spontaneous sport is on the decline and the main general question is how this negative trend could be broken. In particular the study asks how landscape architecture could promote and increase spontaneous sport. Good examples of places for spontaneous sports of different kinds are given, both from Sweden and from other countries, which have inspired a case study where I propose a redesign of a centrally located, but hardly used park in Skäggetorp, a suburb of the town of Linköping. .

The study was conducted at a business in the social service. The purpose was to examine how the business works with human resource planning. In order to answer the purpose two questions was formulated, which human resource planning strategy does the business use? And, how do businesses need to act according to the theory of strategic manpower to achieve human resource planning? Survey data collection was done through a qualitative research design, where interviews with five employees in the business took place.The study shows that the business is using a own made strategy in order to achieve human resource planning. The strategy consists of two steps, in step one they do an background analysis and step two a needs analysis where a goal- and responsibility description are designed and then a set of requirements.

In previous contact with secondary schools, we have noticed a dull setting for friluftsliv among teachers in Physical Education and Health. We suspected that both teaching and assessment are sometimes conducted in error. Under the provisions of Skolverket the teacher must involve all elements mentioned in the core content of the curriculum and the assessment of students' knowledge may be based only on what is expressed in the syllabus for each course. Research shows that the implementation of the curriculum have failed in the subjects investigated (Skolinspektionen, 2013:22). We have identified a gap of knowledge regarding the situation of friluftsliv in the course physical education 1.
