  2. 11. Re:ally re:think – seeking to understand the matters of sustainable fashion

    Author : Celinda Palm; Sarah Cornell; Tiina Häyhä; Fredrik Moberg; Mathilda Tham; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Fashion; Sustainability; Social-ecological system; Critical realism; Transdisciplinarity; Circular economy; Driver-state-response; DPSIR; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Academic studies of sustainable fashion, and the discourses of actors in business and policy, under-define fashion as a system by treating the social and ecological aspects of fashion separately. This reduces the potential for academic findings to provide knowledge useful for transformation of the fashion system and obstructs desired outcomes from policy and business responses to fashion’s negative social and environmental impacts.

  4. 12. Towards co-management of Gialova Lagoon : A Natura 2000 coastal wetland in Messinia, Greece

    Author : Georgios Maneas; Håkan Berg; Stefano Manzoni; Ernsteins Raimonds; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Salinity; wetland restoration; ecosystem services; participatory modelling; social-ecological system; naturgeografi; Physical Geography;

    Abstract : The management of Natura 2000 sites is considered as the cornerstone for the conservation and restoration of biodiversity within Europe. However, protected ecosystems provide a plethora of benefits to local societies, and support the local economy. READ MORE

  5. 13. Global patterns of international fisheries conflict

    Author : Jessica Spijkers; Henrik Österblom; Matthew Osborne; Tiffany Morrison; Graeme S. Cumming; Geoff Dabelko; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Fisheries; conflict; environmental security; social-ecological systems; complex adaptive systems thinking; Sustainability Science; vetenskap om hållbar utveckling;

    Abstract : Are international conflicts over fishery resources a growing security concern? High-profile incidences of conflict, diminishing fishery resources and climate impacts on marine systems have made the international community increasingly wary of fisheries conflict. However, we lack knowledge on conflict incidences over time, as well as the contexts in which the conflicts occur, to assess if fisheries conflict is a growing security threat. READ MORE

    Abstract : As a consequence of global environmental change, sustainable management and governance of natural resources face critical challenges, such as dealing with non-linear dynamics, increased resource variability, and uncertainty. This thesis seeks to address some of these challenges by using simulation models. READ MORE

  7. 15. Building resilience beyond the passive house era. Project-based change and innovation towards the social-ecological performance of the built environment. Swedish experiences

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sweden.; built environment; sustainability; change and innovation; project-based practice; resilience; socio-ecological systems SESs ; building sector;

    Abstract : The building sector needs a radical change in order to make its contribution towards sustainable development. The sector is claimed to be conservative and characterized by fragmented one-off activities. At the same time, demonstration projects are present as current strategies of the transformation of the sector. READ MORE
