Assignment: Speculating about Causes and Proposing Solutions for a National or Global Social Issue

Explore a national or global social issue in your area, at least one of its causes, and a potential solution. For your topic, the social issue should be a problem that can be proven to exist and has potential to be solved.

Begin by stating a thesis that defines the problem, identifies and evaluates at least one aspect of the cause, and offers one potential solution. These three points-problem, cause, and solution-will be used as level I headings for the major parts of the body content.

Requirements: My Thesis Statement is the following;

Poverty is a problem which has affected a large population around the world, and its main causes are aspects related to food insecurity and increased unemployment rates. Poverty can be mitigated through education, the use of technology to achieve food security, effective forecasting, and necessary government policies.

• The paper should be 6-8 pages in length (double-spaced), plus a reference page/title page, and should use a minimum of eight credible sources. The CSU-Global Library is an excellent place to search for credible, scholarly sources.

• Document and citation formatting should be in CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA.

• At the top of your outline, include an open-ended research question that defines the problem and asks how the problem can be solved.
