Every spring, about 100 Master's theses are written at the Department. It is a laborious but rewarding task for our students, and it is a dear inconvenience for our teachers to supervise and grade all these theses. Ever since 2014 we select and honour one of them (or sometimes two when the call is close), considered to be the best Master's thesis of the year. 2024 års vinnareTommy Andersson The Cl
Den globala uppvärmningen förändrar jordens klimat i snabb takt, det är främst utsläpp av växthusgaser som exempelvis koldioxid från förbränning av fossila bränslen som är orsaken. Sverige har tagit flera steg mot en hållbar energiproduktion där 65 % av elen är förnybar, men samtidigt är fossila bränslen en betydande del. Av Sveriges totala energianvändning går 25 % till att värma upp det befintliGlobal warming is changing the Earth's climate and is mainly caused by greenhouse gas emissions from, for example, fossil fuels. Sweden's energy production consists of 65 % renewable energy, but the remaining amount comes from fossil fuels. Of Sweden's total energy production, a quarter goes to heating existing buildings. Upcoming EU directives set higher requirements for energy effici

The modern society is facing various challenges in order to tackle the constantly growing threats of climate change and global warming. The areas in which great readjustments are necessary are many, and even though some appear more critical than others, a holistic approach to this global issue is important. One of these areas consists of our consumption of resources and materials. Addressing this
Avhandlingen undersöker hur kvinnor i Zimbabwes jordbrukssektor tillämpar kollektivt handlande för att främja agroekologisk omvandling och utmana könsrelaterade ojämlikheter. Trots att kvinnor utgör minst 70% av arbetskraften i Zimbabwes jordbrukssektor, marginaliseras de genom ojämlik tillgång till mark, utestängning från strategiska beslut och devalvering av beprövad erfarenhet. Studien bygger pThis thesis examines how women in agricultural communities in Zimbabwe leverage collective action to advance agroecological transformation while challenging systemic gender inequities. It responds to the persistent marginalization of women in Zimbabwean agriculture by investigating how collective action reclaims agency and reshapes agroecological systems. Despite constituting at least 70 % of the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen utgår från förhållandet att mödradödligheten traditionellt varit en tungt vägande faktor för kvinnors totala sjukdomsbörda i låginkomstländer. Mödradödligheten är starkt knuten till såväl allmänna levnadsförhållanden i samhället som till tillgång och kvalitet av professionell hälsovård. Det är därför inte förvånande att mer än 99 av 100 mödradödsfall i värlMaternal health services are the least equitable health care services in most low- and middle-income countries. Improving maternal health in Ghana continues to be a major public health challenge. Socio-economic inequalities within the country are greatly reducing the use of maternal health care services despite government policy reforms to improve access to maternal health care services and interv
