1) Provide a brief overall descriiption of the problem area in a country setting (e.g.
what is the status of environmental degradation in the Philippines). Please note
that the same problem may manifest itself in very different ways in a particularcountry and hence it is imperative that you provide a country-specific setting to the
problem. You need to include references and facts in this section. (approx 400
words)
2) Provide your problem statement and justify why it is important to address it. Note
that a problem statement is different from the overall descriiption of the problem
area in a country setting. The problem statement provides an unbiased and
concise statement of the problem in one to two sentences. The problem statement
provides a link between the current state of the problem and the desired state. You
need to include references and facts in this section. (approx 350 words)
3) Outline your creative (note that in BUSS5221, creative is defined as novel and
useful) idea to address the problem. Your creative idea can be a mix of creative
processes and/or creative solution. You need to show convincing pieces of
evidence that your idea is novel and useful . You can include your pieces of
evidence in the Appendix (E.g. Appendix A – Evidence that idea is novel; Appendix
B – Evidence that idea is useful). The evidence can be in the form of screenshots,
web searches etc but it is your responsibility to provide that your idea is novel and
useful. These pieces of evidence are not included in your word count. (approx
400 words)
4) End of Document References or Diagrams in the main report/essay. (approx 350
words). References and diagrams are included in the word count. Please ‘Choice
