Your Case Analysis (also refer here to as"paper") should address the Topic and demonstrate an understanding of relevant key concepts and appropriate conceptual frameworks.

The following instructions are intended to help you to articulate your written work. They are clearly explained, but please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any doubts.

Structure

The Structure of your Case Analysis consists of three (3) subtitles: Introduction; Main Body; and Conclusions.

Your "paper" mustspecify the subtitles (Introduction, Main Body; and Conclusions).

1. Introduction

You have to explain the concepts of social innovation, business innovation, and the difference between them. Furthermore, you have to briefly describe the idea of improving human development through innovation.

2. Main Body

The body of your paper should be comprised of your writing about each of the following items:

a. What is the impact of microfinance on poverty?

b. What is the collateral effect of microfinance on child labour?

c. What are the social responsibility challenges micro-financiers should meet?

d. Brief discussion of microfinance using the principal-agent framework.

3. Conclusions

In this (final) section, you have to answer the following questions (it is essentially your opinion, I do not expect any particular view to be held):

(a) Does reality about microfinance match the press releases?

(b) How would you suggest that human development should be improved: through social innovation or business innovation or both?

(c) What is the main lesson that you have derived from thevideo by Hugh Sinclair?
