There is an irregularity in the interregional migration in Sweden. An increasing proportion ofthe population is drawn to the metropolitan areas, which creates problems for the smallermunicipalities and towns when their population declines. At the same time, our whole societyis faced with a great challenge: we need to redirect towards a sustainable development, wherethe environmental issues are discussed and dealt with to secure that all present and futuregenerations are given equal opportunities to live a good life.The aim of this study is to, focusing mainly on the environmental dimension of thesustainability concept, examine the attractivity of housing with sustainability claims. Toanswer this, three research questions were used:? Was the migration motive to reduce their environmental impact a part of the decision tomove, among migrants who had moved to housing with sustainability claims?? If the motive was a part of the decision, how much impact did it have compared to othermigration motives?? Which factors in housing aiming at sustainability are considered important by peopleliving in housing with sustainability claims?The research questions have been answered using quantitative data, gained in the form of selfadministeredquestionnaires which were distributed in four different residential areas withsustainability claims in the county of Västra Götaland, Sweden.

Abstract Contemporary cities find themselves today in a fierce competition against other cities over company establishment and in -migration. In this competition, the city?s main objective is to become an attractive site of capital accumulation.  As this happens, the pressure on the vulnerable groups in society increases, leading to a social geographic polarization. I have examined how the shift towards neoliberalism has affected a city on the fringe as Kalmar. How is the postindustrial urban space constructed? I found this important to analyze since it put two important questions in the light: For whom, and for which purpose do we build the city today? My questions have been:v  What are Kalmar municipality?s strategies to develop Kalmar?v  What are the results of this strategy in the urban space?v  What are the consequences of this strategy?The research has been a case study of the city of Kalmar with a qualitative deductive approach where David Harvey?s theories about the city in a capitalist system have been the underpinning structure.

Problem: Nätverkande företag är i stort behov av en effektiv verksamhetsstyrning. Eftersom nätverkande organisationer består av flera företag som agerar som en har de svårt att räcka till, skapa nöjda medlemmar samt utveckla något som ger positiv respons hos finansiärerna. Problemet inom nätverkande företag är att kunna få alla medlemsföretag aktiva och engagerade. Detta innebär att samarbetet behöver utvecklas och ett verktyg som får in de olika aspekterna är av nytta.Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka under vilka förutsättningar ett balanserat styrkort kan implementeras i nätverkande organisationer. Tanken är att se till vilka perspektiv som kan vara i fokus när det gäller nätverkande organisationers styrbarhet samt eventuella motsättningar.Avgränsningar: Våra avgränsningar är främst att uppmärksamma nätverksorganisationers styrbarhet samt att endast utgå ifrån BSC som styrmedel.

This thesis of 15 hp has been implemented at Halmstad University, in collaboration with Saab Dynamics in Linköping. Saab Dynamics is a company operating in the defence industry where competition is tough. This necessitates new ways to increase efficiency in the company, which is the basis for this thesis. Saab Dynamics wants to introduce simulation driven design. Since Saab Dynamics engineers have little experience of simulation, required a user methodology with clear guidelines.

Climate and environmental issues is now high on the agenda. We live in a generation that must try to solve some major environmental problems. Buildings and habitations account for approximately 40 % of Sweden's total energy today. To reduce this figure, as needed, more research in the field of energy efficiency is required.This thesis concerns the heating of buildings. The load on district heating is heavy during certain times of the day.

Corporate Social ResponsibilityThis thesis intends to exam the strategic use of Corporate Social Responsibility within fifthteen different companies, classified/divided into three various industries. The aim is to compare the three different industries, to look for disparities and similarities in their use of CSR. The disseration looks into both variance and resemblance in the use of Corporate Social Responsibility between the companies within the same branch of trade and between the industries.The industries of intrestThe three industries that the study has focus on is consumer, manufacturing and service related industries. Where the consumer industry is classified as companies with direct sales towards private consumers, the physical citizen. The manufacturing industry is classified as companies that manufacture products but that does´nt sell their products directly to the regular consumer.

Bakgrund: CSR, det vill säga miljömedvetenhet och socialt ansvarstagande, har på senare tid kommit att stå i fokus och konsumenter ställer allt högre krav på företag. Detta har lett till att fler företag väljer att frivilligt redovisa sociala och miljömässiga frågor i och kring sin verksamhet.Problem: Redovisning av CSR bygger på frivillig information som inte regleras i svensk lag. Istället finns det ett antal standarder och riktlinjer som är till för att vägleda och underlätta för företagen i deras hållbarhetsredovisning. Dessa är emellertid många och denna uppsjö av riktlinjer samt bristen på standardiserade krav skapar därmed stor förvirring.Syfte: Problematiken kring redovisning av CSR ledde därmed fram till uppsatsens syfte. Syftet med denna kandidatuppsats är att klargöra hur större svenska företag bör arbeta för att uppnå en hög kvalitet på sin hållbarhetsredovisning och utifrån detta framtaga bästa redovisningspraxis.Metod: För att uppfylla uppsatsens syfte har ett kvalitativt tillvägagångssätt använts.

ur society is today in a phase of development in environmental and sustainable thinking. Alarming reports show changes in climate caused by our load and exhaust of resources. The energy usage contributes to a big part of it, by its emission of carbon dioxide. The built environment uses around 40 % of the total energy consumption in Sweden and requests to strongly reduce it are presented from both EU and national level.This thesis brings up the subject of green building with a focus on how we can create more energy efficient buildings in projects of new construction. Since the construction industry today often fails to pass on the knowledge between different projects, as a return of experiences, the construction company Skanska suggested the topic for this thesis.

Digitalt textiltryck ger mig möjlighet att skapa textilier av hög kvalitet i små upplagor utan begränsningar vad gäller rapportstorlek och färgantal. Jag kan producera hållbara och praktiska textilier med en handgjord känsla. Dessa egenskaper ger tekniken intressanta möjligheter som en överbryggare mellan design och textil konst/konsthantverk. Det ger också stora möjligheter att anpassa formgivningen efter en specifik möbel eller miljö. Detta vill jag utnyttja i mitt arbete.
