Agricity

Åberg, Elina January 2018 (has links)
10 billion people will inhabit this planet by 2050. In order to feed such a large number of people research shows that food production will need to increase by 70%.This project explores what a foodcentric city planning can look like, where agriculture is not only integrated into the built environment, but rather the main generator of urban form. A block typology specifically tailored to create optimal growing conditions is rolled out as a high density agricultural grid across Bromma airport, and addresses issues of combining large scale structures with small scale human life.

Kvinnor, klimatförändringar och sårbarhet

Christiansen, Katarina January 2010 (has links)
Den afrikanska kontinenten beräknas att drabbas mer än någon annan region av klimat-förändringarnas direkta effekter. Samtidigt är anpassningsmöjligheterna här begränsade och ekonomin särskilt beroende av klimatrelaterade sektorer. Samband mellan ekonomisk svaghet och sårbarhet är relativt kartlagda i det internationella klimatarbetet. Dessa kopplingar belyser inte minst kvinnors utsatta position i utvecklingsregioner, eftersom kvinnor utgör majoriteten av världens fattiga befolkningar. Sårbarhet inför ett förändrat klimat grundas dock inte enbart på ekonomiska och finansiella tillgångar. Traditionella, könsdifferentierade levnadssätt ålägger kvinnor ett särskilt ansvar över hem och familj, medan fördomar om kvinnors olämplighet begränsar deras politiska inflytande. Denna uppsats understryker de implikationer som kön och könsroller ger upphov till, i fråga om anpassningsmöjligheter till försämrade klimatförhållanden och minskad vatten- och mattillgång. / The African continent is reckoned to be the region most affected by direct impacts of climate change. At the same time, here, adaptation possibilities are scarce and the economy particularly dependent on climate-related sectors. International climate research has identified connections between economic weakness and vulnerability. These relations shed light – not the least – on the exposed position of women in developing regions, since women constitute the majority of the world’s poorest populations. Nevertheless, vulnerability due to climate change is not only founded on economic and financial assets. Traditional, gender differentiated ways of living impose certain responsibilities on women for household duties and family life, while prejudices about women’s unsuitability limit their political authority. This essay underlines the implications of gender and gender roles, regarding adaptation possibilities to deteriorated climatic conditions and reduced access to water and food.
