  • Circular Economy Approaches for the Apparel Industry
    University of St.Gallen Hochschule für Wirtschafts-, Rechts- und Sozialwissenschaften Circular Economy Approaches for the Apparel Industry Master Thesis Author Lukas Fuchs Rorschacher Strasse 56 9000 St.Gallen Student number: 09-607-763 E-Mail: [email protected] Advisor Prof. Dr. Thomas Dyllick Institute for Economy and the Environment Submitted on May 23rd, 2016 Management Summary With the thesis at hand seven different business models have been investigated on their ability to function as Circular Economy business models in the apparel industry. The different business models have been explained theoretically and exemplified with real business cases from around the world. To complement the conducted primary research, the author has conducted several expert interviews. Then the different models’ ability to contribute to the solution of the waste and pollution difficulties caused by the linear take-make-dispose model employed throughout the industry is assessed. Five categories have been derived to rate the degree of change the business models can add in the development towards a Circular Economy. The results show that only a fully Circular Supply Chain model is able to enhance systemic change at large scale while eliminating waste and pollution through its inherent design.

The company used it as a basis for devising. The final script was written later on in the process. 1 Narrator: It never used to snow like this. Maybe once in a blue moon. You can tell how unusual it is because nobody’s got the weather gear to cope with it. M & S don’t sell arctic parkas yet. Pensioners are being pulled like ice lollies from snowdrifts up and down the country but in M&S the rails are still full of shower-proof anoraks. Michael Fish says it’s here to stay. Something to do with Global Warming and the Gulf Stream. It’s all our fault apparently. Who’d’ve thought you could change the weather by mistake. Every time you turned the ignition key of your car – whoops! – another snow shower twenty years down the line. How do you explain it to your kids? “Wrap up son, ‘cause your mother and I drove to B&Q once too often and inadvertently started an ice age.” Look at these two.

  • Get Your Coat: Examining the Development of Independent
    1 Get Your Coat: Examining the Development of Independent Dressing Skills in Young Children with Visual Impairment in comparison with Young Children with Down syndrome and Typically Developing Children Jessica Antonia Hayton UCL Institute of Education Thesis submitted to University College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisors: Dr. Dagmara Dimitriou and Dr. Karl Wall May 2016 Jessica Hayton 2 Declaration I, Jessica Hayton, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I can confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature:……………………………… Date:…………………….. Word count: 89,752 (excluding references and appendices). Jessica Hayton 3 Abstract The ability to independently dress is a fundamental skill for children. Vision is an integrative sense. Sight affords the opportunity for individuals to learn independence skills via observation. The absence of vision, or a reduced visual capacity, restricts access to this form of learning (Lewis & Iselin, 2002). As a result of this restricted access, children with visual impairment (VI) and conditions where VI is a component (e.g. Down syndrome (DS)) require systematic and structured support. This is to facilitate the development of independent dressing skills. There has been little research to date relating to strategies for successful dressing, or the effectiveness of such strategies in children (as most of the research has been based around the re-habilitation of adults: e.g. Klein, 1983). This thesis reports an observationally based pre-test, intervention, post-test study. It examines the effectiveness of novel intervention materials and systematic strategies to support independent dressing abilities in young children.

    A Clean Sweep by Angelika Waldis. Translated by Sharon Howe. 1. INCOGNITO Luisa has resolved to have a clear-out. And Alfred will be first to go. She has been married to Alfred for nearly forty years. Alfred is an egosaurus. Always putting himself first, always did. The fact that he shared a home with Luisa and their two daughters had about as much impact on his life as the rubbish collection schedule. "I'm an artist" he would say. "He's an artist, you see", Luisa would say. She said it for years, knowing all the while that he was no such thing. She is on the train to Vienna, leafing through her travel guide. It's way out of date, but that doesn't matter. She has never been to Vienna. "I'm seventy years of age and I've never been to Vienna", she said to the hairstylist. "It's about time I treated myself – why not? Go on, make me pretty." "Are you sure you want it cropped to an inch, Frau Gallmann?" the stylist asked. "Positive. Off with it!" And the stylist started cutting, snipping away the clumps of curls that had remained unchanged for decades. Now Luisa can see her new look reflected in the train window. She looks younger with her short grey hair. Almost like a man. Behind her head, fields and woods flash through the summer evening, illuminated with streaks of red sunset. Beautiful. 1 Before long, the ticket collector appears. He registers her electronic ticket. One return to Vienna. "Have a nice evening, madam." She puts the ticket away carefully; that will serve as evidence of her journey.

Snail human by author, 2018 Abstract This thesis examines changing boundaries between childhood and adulthood in twenty-first century British society and culture through the concept of growth in order to investigate alternatives to conventional ideas of growing up. It is the first in-depth academic study to consider growing sideways as a distinct and important discourse that challenges, and provides an alternative to, the discourse of upwards growth, previously identified as a pervasive grand narrative that privileges adulthood (Trites, 2014).
