  1. 21. Decision support for the implementation of low-carbon measures in the building sector

    Författare :Nicolas Francart; Tove Malmqvist; Paula Femenias; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; building; sustainability; environmental performance assessment; life cycle assessment; decision making; byggnad; hållbarhet; miljöprestandabedömning; livscykelanalys; beslutsstöd; Strategier för hållbar utveckling; Strategies for sustainable development;

    Sammanfattning : The building sector is responsible for about a fifth to a third of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Therefore, a successful mitigation of GHG emissions over the entire life cycle of buildings is particularly important to achieve climate targets such as the Paris Agreement. LÄS MER

  3. 22. Devising Capabilities : Service Design for Development Interventions

    Författare :Fiona Lambe; Stefan Holmlid; Matthew Osborne; Alison Prendiville; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Service design; Capabilities approach; Development interventions; Global South; Complexity;

    Sammanfattning : Despite the progress in recent decades, one in ten people globally still live in extreme poverty, and this number is set to increase in the coming years. Designing interventions to improve well-being and livelihoods is challenging because poverty is multidimensional and plays out in complex, adaptive social-ecological systems, where behaviours and practices at the local level can have unintended consequences elsewhere in the system.

  4. 23. Integrating a Strategic Sustainable Development Perspective in Product-Service System Innovation

    Författare :Anthony Thompson; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Sustainable product innovation; Sustainable product development; Strategic sustainable development; Product-service systems PSS ; Life cycle management; Set-based product development;

    Sammanfattning : There is an intersection of challenges where society’s social and ecological problems coincide with the industrial firm’s challenge to maintain profitability in a globalizing world. Products connect these challenges. LÄS MER

  5. 24. Towards Sustainability-driven Innovation through Product Service Systems

    Författare :Anthony Thompson; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable product innovation; sustainable product development; strategic sustainable development; product-service systems PSS ; decision support tools; life cycle management;

    Sammanfattning : Increasing awareness of anthropogenic impacts on the planet has lead to efforts to reduce negative environmental impacts in product development for several decades. Benefits to companies who focus on sustainability initiatives have been put forth more recently, leading to many efforts to incorporate sustainability considerations in their product innovation processes.

    Sammanfattning : The transport sector is associated with many environmental challenges, including carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Research indicate that CO2 emissions should decrease by at least 50 % per decade in order to be in line with the Paris Agreement, and the transport sector is highlighted as a particularly challenging sector.
