In this regard, three main issues are discussed separately. Firstly, the applicability of the Convention in the hostilities and norm conflict with International Humanitarian Law. Secondly, the issue of extraterritoriality.

Bakgrund: Äldres psykiska ohälsa är ett ökande folkhälsoproblem som inte lyfts i tillräcklig utsträckning med konsekvensen av en minskad livskvalitet. Trots behovet av insatser för att främja psykisk hälsa för äldre så genomförs insatser som främjar en meningsfull vardag som även inkluderar fritidsaktiviteter i låg utsträckning. Det finns tidigare forskning som tyder på att sådana insatser kan fräBackground: Mental health issues among older people is a growing public health challenge that is not sufficiently considered, with the consequence of a lower quality of life.

Batteries and renewable energy sources are key to the green energy transition and decarbonization. The EU has plans for green energy transitions and to mitigate climate change, but it is still largely dependent on imported fossil fuels. China dominates resources, materials and technologies for green energy transitions. With the recent energy crisis and Russian invasion of Ukraine, energy security

Prefabricerade planelement blev en viktig beståndsdel i bostadsbyggandet under 1900- talets bostadsbrist för att uppnå en ökad produktionstakt. Det industriella byggandet innebär tillverkning i en kontrollerad miljö, vilket ger en bättre kontroll över byggprocessen. För småhusindustrin utgör byggandet med prefabricerade planelement idag större delen av den svenska marknaden. Den slutna fabriksmilj
