Background: We recently reported frequent use of opioids among elderly with dementia. Discrepancies in clinical practice may in part explain the higher use of opioids in elderly with dementia, which geographical variation may be able to clarify. Objective: To investigate geographical variation in opioid use in elderly with dementia compared to elderly without dementia. Methods: Register-based cross-sectional study in the entire elderly (≥65 years) population of Denmark in 2015.

  • Workplace for Young People in This Issue
    tidskriften datorn i utbildningen www.diu.se Workplace for young people In this issue: Scandinavia@BETT Denmark Norway Sweden 2 diu@BETT • 2013 Scandinavia@bett We present three cases. Three Scandinavian cases of schools meeting the future. Not in a full and comprehensive study, but a picture with some facets. We want to give you some of the experiences, some of the perspectives and some of the challenges schools meet. And how it’s met by three Scandinavian schools and Municipalities. Here, in this brochure we try to convey a snapshot of the change following digitalization of schools, by showing three glimpses from Scandinavia, from three schools, one each in Nor- way, Denmark and Sweden. They have been chosen from three different municipalities, not necessarily outstanding. One larger city on the Norwegian coast, old city with harbor and shipping industry. One a small town in the Jutland countryside in a rural area and an hour from second largest Da- nish city Århus, and finally a middle sized Swedish industrial town, in forest and mine region with iron as the dominating trade. They have been chosen to reflect what is happening this very now. Schools slowly – or more rapidly! – developing their curriculum, their methods and their tools. Still doing the same thing, trying to give young people a good start in their life, knowled- ge, skills and personal development. Reflecting some of the new things growing. For each a video, a written and an oral report to inspire or stimulate reflection. Three facets are completing the picture. Oystein Johannessen well known for his long period at the Knowledge Department in Oslo, Norway, with his focus on na- tional policies for developing schools with ICT.

  • Invitation Collaborate with Strong Students
    Invitation Collaborate with strong students - an easy and effective route to ideas and future employees Roskilde University 1 "As a ‘university based in reality’ we Welcome believe that RUC's primary duty is to engage in innovative collaborations with actors outside the realm of the university, who wish to contribute to creating the learning, knowledge and problem solving that can move society forward". 2 Welcome Roskilde University prioritises its engagement with reality. Our 9,000 students spend half of their studies carrying out projects. Many of these projects are implemented in close cooperation with private companies, government agencies and interest groups. This large volume of projects means that our students make an enormous difference in many places. If you are not already working with some of our students, we hope you will consider it. It can provide ideas and perspectives that you can use in the organization of your work. In product development. And for your bottom line. We also know that many of our graduates return to one of the companies they have worked with as students. This means that there can also be a long-term benefit. Be sure to read the folder. If you find it interesting, we would be delighted to hear from you. Hanne Leth Andersen Rector 3 Get fresh insights and inspiring ideas from those who may become your future employees RUC's 9,000 students work in a wide range of technology, arts, social and natural sciences. The following pages contain examples of some of the issues they work with.

  • Application for the Landscape Award of the Council of Europe 2019
    Application for the Landscape Award of the Council of Europe 2019 Landscape futures -Visions and plans for the countryside ‘Landscape Futures’ is the name of an action research programme carried out in 2013-18 with the aim to place the future of rural landscapes on the multidisciplinary agenda and to renew Danish countryside planning. Most of the participating landscape planning projects were completed in 2016 but many - as the overall programme – continued and are still ‘active’ in terms of actions taken. The programme was organized as a partnership between three Danish universities (Aalborg University, University of Southern Denmark, and University of Copenhagen), Aarhus School of Architecture, the National Agricultural Advisory Service, Danish Outdoor Council, Danish Hunters Association, and 11 municipalities. Twelve concrete ‘real- life’ planning projects owned by eleven municipalities and the Danish Hunters Association constitute the programme’s laboratory. Insights and solutions gained from these very different projects represent the most important outcomes of the programme. In addition, a number of events have been organized by the programme including ten public lectures on ‘European Landscapes in transition’, seven thematic seminars, an international conference in cooperation with Uniscape, a national conference and a museum exhibition. The main results of the programme are published in the Danish book, ‘Landscape Futures – visions and plans for the countryside’ (Bogværket, February 2019). Additionally, a number of other publications draw on the programme including ‘European Landscape in Transition – implications for policy and planning’ published by Cambridge University Press 2018. The twelve projects have affected protection, management, and enhancements of the landscapes in question and most of them have had clear impacts on municipal planning and landscape management.

Sector Public Transport Total PDS cost EUR 2,549,000 Elena contribution EUR 1,911,750 (75%) Project development ELENA will support Aarhus Light Rail I/S with additional services (PDS) resources to improve both quality and energy efficiency of the financed by ELENA transport system: ELENA will support studies to find the best energy efficient solutions for the power supply of the system, covering both urban and suburban environments, where the power supply systems are different. ELENA will support the research of innovative technical solutions on how to transform a traditional local freight and passenger rail line into a light rail network with rail freight capability. ELENA will provide support to strengthen the current organisation. Due to the complexity of the project Aarhus Light Rail I/S has to hire more people - primarily specialist and lawyers - to ensure the necessary permits and agreements with the stakeholders and organisations involved in the project. Aligning the stakeholders is crucial to achieve a successful implementation of the project, which will be able to finish and operate on time. ELENA will bring additional support from external experts to fill the gap between internal expertise and standard solutions and the complexity and specificity of the activities to be carried out.
