title: Religion and Money: Economy of Salvation in the Middle Ages, 2017

description: The project map out and discuss the coin findings under the floors of Scandinavian churches. In aggregate, 80 000 coins have been found. These coins reflect individuals' use of coins in relation to God and church. For all intents and purposes, the coins were dropped during sacrifice. Sacrificing money was a universal religious practice throughout western Christianity. The distribution of coins within the churches illuminates religious practice over time, changes in practice and how churches in different places organised and administered the institution of sacrifice.

title: Simulation Based Tools for Linking Knowledge with Action to Improve and Maintain Food Security in Africa, 2017

description: According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations there were 800 million malnourished people in 2015. The percentages of malnourished were highest in Africa South of the Sahara. Meanwhile, Africa South of the Sahara is a region that is especially vulnerable to climate change. 

The main food source in this region are maize, hence the maize crops plays an important role for the population regarding food security. However, research shows that climate change will contribute to a remarkable reduction in the crops for the maize-dominant agriculture in the south of Africa, and this is a new factor that will increase the uncertainty of the food security in the region. 
Different methods to adapt the changing climate and other threats towards food security have been launched. Reviews of the consequences of these methods in short and long term have been challenging because of the dynamic complexity of food production in this area. This is the case of reviews of individual adaption methods and especially when the adaption methods were seen in context with strategies for food security. 

This project has contributed to the implementation of methods that adapted the agriculture to climate changes through development and use of simulation models and related training tools. These tools were used in a project in the maize-dominated agriculture in Zambia, and the project had two overall goals: 
-To identify effective political measurements to increase food production over time if climate change were to occur in the region
-Develop and review strategies for integration of knowledge and capacity increasing measures that supports the political measurements

The project combined the academic disciplines of climate research, agriculture and food security with the academic discipline of System Dynamics, that used data simulated models for designing political measures and for the teaching of complex dynamic systems. This combination led to both the making of guidelines for training in complex dynamic systems and accessibility of information of climate change, agriculture and food security. 

The uniqueness about this project was that it had led to development of several methods where system dynamics modelling tools and techniques that can be used by small scale agriculture to build effective adaption strategies.

title: The Developmental State Reloaded: Brazilian Industrial Policy in the XXIst Century, 2017

description: The last decade in Brazil has seen the emergence of debates about the need of an active industrial policy by the government in order to stimulate the technological upgrading and competitiveness of national industry. However, the Brazilian industrial policy has been characterized by heterogeneous sets of initiatives that vary by sector. Therefore, the aim of this project was to understand: 1) the political and economic factors that affect the process of elaboration and implementation of industrial policy in Brazil; and 2) to what extent these policies affect the ability of domestic firms to upgrade their technological and organizational skills. Empirically, the project focused on a comparative study of Brazil's two most important extractive industries: oil & gas (O&G) and mining. These two sectors are relevant since both oil and iron ore are Brazil's main export products. Despite being extractive industries, both sectors involve complex chains of suppliers that have been recently the target of different policies to stimulate the local production and provision of equipment and services. Additionally, both sectors present considerable differences in the set of policy instruments (e.g. local content requirements) and the intensity of the state intervention. The research design was based on three stages of data collection: 1) document analysis and interview with key-informants in order to map the evolution of the policy-making in each sector and identify relevant policy instruments; 2) case studies with firms within the supply chain of each sector in order to identify whether and how policy instruments affect firms' strategies; 3) collection of data through a survey with a larger sample of firms along the supply chain with the aim to identify general differences in the way policy instruments in each sector affect firm's strategies. The results of the project were expected to raise the knowledge about the economic policy-making in Brazil and the viability of strategies to develop domestic industries in the context of a globalized economy.

This survey was conducted with a sample of companies that are suppliers for the oil and gas sector operating in Brazil. The main themes of the survey are upgrading strategies, collaboration with other firms, and perceptions about the impacts of local content policy. Questions focus on investment strategies, innovation, upgrade, and inter-firm collaboration.

title: New Turns in Arctic Winter Tourism: Adventuring, Romanticising and Exoticising, and Demasculinising Nature? 2017

description: Tourism in Northern Norway has experienced significant growth in the last 10-15 years, especially in the winter. This growth has been a result of the increased focus on development and marketing of nature-based winter activities, and that international markets have discovered the region as a winter destination. Central to this development has been Northern Lights experiences, Hurtigruten, and the television documentary Joanna Lumley in the Land of the Northern Lights. However, there was little formal knowledge of winter tourism that could explain development processes and meetings between tourists, the industry and the Arctic winter. This project qualitatively and quantitatively explored winter tourism developments in the Arctic from four thematic angles: 1) Winter Tourism Activities: Soft and Hard Adventures (WP1) 2) Finnmarksløpet and the Iditarod of Alaska: Event Tourism (WP2) 3) Hurtigruten: Potentials and Barriers in Mass Tourism Developments (WP3) 4) Aurora Borealis: Tourism Performances and Symbolic Meanings (WP4) For further information about "New Turns in Arctic Winter Tourism: Adventuring, Romanticising and Exoticising, and Demasculinising Nature? 2017", please contact the principal investigator.
