Bicycle City
In Bicycle City: Riding the Bike Boom to a Brighter Future cycling expert Daniel Piatkowski argues that the bicycle is the best tool that we have to improve our cities. The car-free urban future--where cities are vibrant, with access to everything we need close by--may be less bike-centric than we think. But bikes are a crucial first step to getting Americans out of cars. Piatkowski offers pragmatic lessons drawn from the latest research along with interviews, anecdotes, and case studies from around the world. Electric bikes are demonstrating the ability of bikes to replace cars in more places and for more people. Cargo bikes are replacing SUVs for families and delivery trucks for freight. At the same time, mobility startups are providing new ownership models to make these new bikes easier to use and own, ushering in a new era of pedal-powered cities. Bicycle City is about making cities better with bikes rather than for bikes.

Selvforsyning af fødevarer i fem nordiske øsamfund: Bornholm, Færøerne, Grønland, Island og Åland
Available online: https://pub.norden.org/temanord2022-528/ Rapportens formål er at øge indsigten i, hvorvidt og hvordan en højere grad af selvforsyning med fødevarer kan bidrage til mere bæredygtige og resiliente fødevaresystemer i de nordiske øsamfund Bornholm, Færøerne, Grønland, Island og Åland. Øysamfundene har forskellige forudsætninger for fødevareproduktion og betingelser for de lokale fødevaresystemer. Det handler blandt andet om de klimatiske forudsætninger, tilgangen til egnede landbrugsarealer og marine områder, og forskellige fødevaretraditioner og kultur.I projektet er en grov selvforsyningsgrad og dækningsgrad med fødevarer blevet udregnet baseret på tilgængelige data, pågående arbejde med selvforsyning og lokale fødevaresystemer er kortlagt, og udfordringerne og mulighederne som lokale aktører fremhæver ved at øge selvforsyningsgraden er beskrevet.

The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises
The Oxford Handbook of Migration Crises focuses on two interrelated aspects of migration crises: the contexts that give rise to such crises, and the role of the media and public officials in framing migratory flows as crises. It critically examines what crises are, where they arise, and how this concept is used in scholarship and policy.
OECD Skills Strategy 2019
The OECD Skills Strategy provides a strategic and comprehensive approach for ensuring that people and countries have the skills to thrive in a complex, interconnected and rapidly changing world. The updated 2019 OECD Skills Strategy takes account of the lessons learned from applying the original skills strategy in 11 countries since 2012, while also incorporating new OECD evidence about the skills implications of megatrends, such as globalisation, digitalisation, population ageing, and migration. The Strategy also incorporates new learning from across the OECD about skills policies that work in these three broad components: developing relevant skills over the life course, using skills effectively in work and society, and strengthening the governance of skills systems.
