Academic literature on the topic 'Rinkeby-Tensta'

Background: Vaccination hesitancy and skepticism among parents hinders progress in achieving full vaccination coverage. Swedish measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine coverage is high however some areas with low vaccination coverage risk outbreaks. This study aimed to explore factors influencing the decision of Somali parents living in the Rinkeby and Tensta districts of Stockholm, Sweden, on whether or not to vaccinate their children with the measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccine. Method: Participants were 13 mothers of at least one child aged 18 months to 5 years, who were recruited using snowball sampling. In-depth interviews were conducted in Somali and Swedish languages and the data generated was analysed using qualitative content analysis. Both written and verbal informed consent were obtained from participants. Results: Seven of the mothers had not vaccinated their youngest child at the time of the study and decided to postpone the vaccination until their child became older (delayers). The other six mothers had vaccinated their child for MMR at the appointed time (timely vaccinators). The analysis of the data revealed two main themes: (1) barriers to vaccinate on time, included issues surrounding fear of the child not speaking and unpleasant encounters with nurses and (2) facilitating factors to vaccinate on time, included heeding vaccinating parents’ advice, trust in nurses and trust in God. The mothers who had vaccinated their children had a positive impact in influencing other mothers to also vaccinate. Conclusions: Fear, based on the perceived risk that vaccination will lead to autism, among Somali mothers in Tensta and Rinkeby is evident and influenced by the opinions of friends and relatives. Child Healthcare Center nurses are important in the decision-making process regarding acceptance of MMR vaccination. There is a need to address mothers’ concerns regarding vaccine safety while improving the approach of nurses as they address these concerns.

The Stockholm Municipality has set inclusion at the core of its objectives for the city with its “Vision 2040: A Stockholm for Everyone”. Acknowledging the divide between neighborhoods, the government has brought forward social sustainability as a key component to improve the fast- growing city. This research focuses on three of the most stigmatized neighborhoods of Stockholm: Rinkeby, Tensta, and Husby, where residents are predominantly of foreign background, to offer an alternative way of understanding inclusion. Specifically, this study looks into the public spaces at the center of these three neighborhoods in a comparative analysis of public life. The collaborative project presented here shows the importance of these centrums in supporting community life in the suburbs. Drawing from Setha Low’s research on public squares in Costa Rica, the following work suggest public space is not only produced by those who envision it, but also constructed by those who use it, through daily processes, behaviors, and habits. These observed patterns carry significance as they forge the character of a place, and address practices and emotions within a collective identity. The thesis puts emphasis on the dynamic nature of public space, the relationship between morphology and use, and the potential neighborhood centers have for becoming hubs of inclusion.

Why this proposal makes sense... The aim of this project is to research the relationship between a mosque and the functions of a community center. It is located between Tensta and Rinkeby, two suburbs in the north of Stockholm. I believe that the two areas can gain a lot by a shared community center due to both positive and negative similarities. The proximity to Järvafältet and Kista is a great plus in the equation. Kista is another suburb in the Järva area and it has been a huge success with regards to education, entrepreneurship and the IT-industry that re- sides there. My goal was to create a contemporary mosque that stays true to Islamic architectural concepts while I develop a new aesthetic language for the spaces that a mosque requires. How can we use the mosque as an attracting catalyst in order to reach out to the inhabitants in these areas? A lot of people in Järva have roots in other parts of the world. There are a lot of vibrant communities from all over the world in Tensta and Rinkeby. People have great respect for faith and religious matters and consider it to be a major part of their identity. What spaces can a mosque share with the community center for opti- mal use and convenience? My proposal takes into consideration that a mosque has a limited num- ber of days during the year when the worshippers need all the space that they can get. I have therefore proposed to put the mosque next to the sports hall so that the sports hall can be used for prayer and spiritual activities during special events such as the month of Ramadan and Friday prayers. When the sports hall is not used by the mosque it goes back to being just a regular sports hall with an intricate roof. What makes it a community center? To make the project more compelling I have added other functions in order to address the needs and wishes of the inhabitants. There is also a library, a food court, lecture hall/cinema, offices, conference rooms, seminar rooms and a class room.

I Järvaområdet finns ett par områden med omfattande utanförskap. Rinkeby, Tensta och Husby har de senaste åren drabbats av flera upplopp där våld och hot mot samhällsföreträdare förekommit. Social oro är ofta en benämning på anlagda bil- och skolbränder, stenkastning mot myndighetsutövare, skadegörelse, hot och våld mot tjänstemän, samt upplopp. Syftet med studien är att få en förståelse för hur yrkesverksamma och boende i Järvaområdet uppfattar social oro. Studien avgränsar sig endast till de områden i Järvaområdet, Stockholm som drabbats av omfattande social oro, i detta fall Rinkeby, Tensta och Husby. Studien utgår från djupintervjuer med poliser, politiker och boenden. Alla aktörer är yrkesverksamma och/eller bor i Järvaområdet samt är engagerade ideellt. Studien visar att oroligheterna i Järvaområdet startade för cirka 5 år sedan när utflyttningen av samhällsinstitutioner från Järvaområdet startade vilket förstärkte exkluderingen från det omgivande samhället. Respondenterna menar att ett ”vi och  dom” perspektiv växt fram i Järvaområdet. Utvecklingen går mot ökad isolering där det övriga samhället står utan insyn, kriminella krafter styr och hotbilden mot polisen förstärks. Studien visar att demokratin är eftersatt i dessa områden och att det finns en diskriminering mot de boende, både i den samhälleliga normen och i det politiska styret.  Det finns en rastlöshet och frustration bakom de destruktiva handlingarna som grundar sig i att ungdomarna inte har någonstans att vara eller ta vägen.

Inledning: Vaccinationstveksamhet är ett fenomen som är viktigt att studera eftersom bekämpningen mot covid-19 och andra sjukdomar är beroende av att befolkningen vaccinerar sig. Området Rinkeby-Tensta har tidigare haft låg vaccinationstäckning på grund av oro över biverkningar. Syftet är att ta reda på inställningen för vaccination mot covid-19 i Rinkeby-Tensta. Metod: En tvärsnittsstudie utfördes med bekvämlighetsurval. Resultat: Resultatet visar att 72 respondenter besvarade enkäten varav 78 procent av respondenterna svarade att de antingen inte vill eller inte vet om de vill vaccinera sig. Diskussion: Utbildningsnivå är inte associerat med vaccinationsviljan. Att senarelägga vaccinacceptansen uppfattas som en fördel. Bekymmer över vaccinets biverkningar är en faktor i vaccinationsbeslutet.
Introduction: Vaccine hesitancy is a phenomenon that is important to study when the fight against covid-19 and other diseases is dependent on the population being vaccinated. Rinkeby-Tensta previously had low vaccination coverage due to concerns about side effects. The aim is to measure the attitude toward vaccination against covid -19 in Rinkeby-Tensta Method: A cross-sectional study was performed with convenience sample. Results: Results show that 72 respondents answered the survey, of which 78 percent of the respondents answered that they either do not want or do not know if they want to get vaccinated. Discussion: Level of education is not associated with willingness to get vaccinated. To postpone vaccinations is perceived as a benefit. Concerns about the side effects of vaccine is a factor in the vaccination decision.

Studien intresserar sig för nyhetsmediernas konstruktion av de platser som benämns som no go-zoner i artiklarna. Uppsatsen behandlar tryckta artiklar från Aftonbladet, Dagens Nyheter, Expressenoch Svenska Dagbladetunder en fyraårig period, 28 oktober 2014 till 28 oktober 2018. Syftet är att analysera hur så kallade no go-zoner konstrueras i svensk morgon- och kvällspress, med avsikten att vidare analysera och diskutera hur journalistiken gestaltar annorlundaheter (otherness) och svenskhet samt undersöka huruvida rasism uttrycks i artiklarna. Frågeställningarna berör hur no go-zonerna representeras i artiklarna, hur identiteter konstrueras, vilka framträdande teman som återfinns samt vilka platser som är mest återkommande i materialet. För att besvara frågeställningarna genomförs inledningsvis en kvantitativ innehållsanalys av hela materialet i syfte att kartlägga materialets omfattning. Vidare görs en kritisk diskursanalys inspirerad av Norman Faircloughs tredimensionella analysmodell. I den kvalitativa textanalysen görs en närläsning av fyra artiklar. Teorier hämtade från framförallt Stuart Hall används för att identifiera hur kultur och identitet konstrueras i artiklarna. För att identifiera stereotyper används teorier hämtade från Richard Dyer, Stuart Hall och Ylva Brune. Teun A. van Dijks teorier om vår tids nya rasism används dels för att identifiera hur kulturella skillnader uttrycks i gestaltandet av no go-zoner, samt för att sätta texten i ett socialt sammanhang. Studien visar att våld och kriminalitet är det mest framträdande temat, samt Sverigebilden och motstånd är återkommande. Hur begreppet no go-zoner används i tidningsartiklarna för att beskriva vissa områden kan förstås som ett retoriskt verktyg för att reducera en redan ojämlik maktfördelning men också för att bekräfta det som inte är no go-zon.
