    Sammanfattning : Up to 5% of children in Sweden experience domestic violence at home. A common misunderstanding when it comes to children being exposed to domestic violence is that they are not being harmed by the exposure. As a result of this, children are not being adequately protected against the potentially harmful outcomes that follow. LÄS MER

  3. 23. Assessing the Practical Use of an Integrated Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Change Adaptation Approach: A Case Study on Bangladesh

    Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionen

    Författare :Pim Roupé; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Disaster Risk Reduction; Climate Change Adaptation; Disaster Management; Climate Change; Natural Hazards; Resilience;

    Sammanfattning : The ambition of this thesis is to fulfill two aims. The first aim is theory development, by presenting a theoretical framework where climate change adaptation (CCA) and disaster risk reduction (DRR) are combined. The second aim is empirical, where the theoretical framework is used to analyze an example of DRR with an ambition to include CCA. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Natural Hazards Impact on Real Estate Value : A Semi - Quantitative Risk Assessment of the Climatic Impact on Commercial Buildings in Milan, Italy

    Nyckelord :Natural Hazards; Real Estate Value; Climate Risk; Vulnerability; Extremväder; Fastighetsvärde; Klimatrisk; Sårbarhet;

    Sammanfattning : In the light of the increased frequency of natural hazards in Europe alongside the high impact a hazardous event has on real estate value, real estate owners need to manage and strengthen assets within their entire portfolio to increase resilience and minimize the vulnerability to future negative impact. Further, a research gap exists in how to incorporate climate variables with real estate specifics which makes it challenging for property managers and other stakeholders to interpret the climatic impact on a particular asset.
