    In this article, I approach the role of the Swedish society Pro Fide et Christianismo and its members in the 18th century discussions on education and school reform. I focus especially on the activities of the members serving in the Eastern part of the Swedish realm, Finland. The source material consists mainly of the Society’s archives stored by the Royal Library in Stockholm, Sweden. The society was founded in 1771 to promote “true Christianity” and practical religion and it was an active contributor to book production, school founding and popular education. At the end of the century, the society constituted one of the most important networks for the Swedish clergy promoting education. The study points out the active role of the clergy and of the Finnish membership in the society’s attempts to reform schools and popular education. These attempts resulted in school and book projects discussed in this article.Artikkelin tutkimuskohteena on Pro Fide et Christianismo -seuraan kuuluneen papiston ja etenkin sen Suomen alueella toimineen jäsenistön asema 1700-luvun ruotsalaisessa koulu-uudistuskeskustelussa ja siihen liittyneissä uudistushankkeissa. Vuonna 1771 Ruotsissa perustettu Pro Fide et Christianismo -seura oli vuosisadan lopulla valtakunnan keskeisimpiä papiston toimintaverkostoja. Seura ja sen jäsenet osallistuivat aktiivisesti aikakauden keskusteluun koulu-uudistuksista ja toteuttivat erilaisia kansan sivistämiseen ja kristinopin tuntemuksen parantamiseen tähdänneitä kirja- ja kouluhankkeita

    Mismatch, empowerment, fatigue or balance? Four scenarios of physical activity up to 2030 in Finland

    Get PDF
    Sedentary lifestyles and the lack of physical activity (PA) are a major concern among all age groups, and current generations tend to be less fit than the previous ones in the Western World. At the same time, there is an urgent need to cut transport-related carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Major gains can be foreseen if current car-centred lifestyles and sedentary behaviour are addressed from an integrated perspective. In this study, we explore future scenarios in the intersections of PA and active lifestyles as well as related environmental and health benefits in Finland. We used a disaggregative Delphi approach to examine the topic. Although frequently used in health-related research, Delphi has rarely been used in exploring alternative futures or non-consensus. The study design was based on a mixed-methods approach where we combined both qualitative and quantitative data analysis. Building on the experts’ perceptions on alternative futures, we formulated four scenarios for PA up to 2030, which we named Mismatch, Empowerment, Fatigue and Balance. The scenarios may be utilised as guides in developing future policies and decision-making, and to build better futures. Our scenarios demonstrate that alternatives do exist, and actions can be realigned with the positive scenarios of Empowerment and Balance. The physically inactive scenarios of Mismatch and Fatigue represent avoidable scenarios.</p

    This guide gives some general tips for evaluators. It can be used when evaluating DMP by students, peer reviewing or when evaluation is conducted by a data steward. The working group hopes you develop the guidance further in order to meet your specific needs and policies.Ideally data management plan will be read and evaluated together with the research plan. In the DMP context, ‘data’ is understood as a broad term. Data covers all the information and material research results are based on (like codes, software, notes, etc). </p
