Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please read Chapters 9 and 10 of
your course text.
In many professional jobs, employees are often given a broadly defined task
(e.g., write a report on this topic). This week, you will have the chance to
practice creating a report and presenting it in a professional meeting.
These are transferable skills that will help you in your current or future
jobs.
Scenario:
You are a project manager working for Global Challenges 2050, a
non-governmental organization (NGO) that addresses a wide range of aid
projects around the world. Global Challenges 2050 recently accepted a
donation of $20 million USD to fund two projects the following year. Each
project will be two years in length and needs to find one concrete solution
to a global problem. The executive director, your boss, has tasked you and
the other project managers to come up with a viable project. At the next
Global Challenges 2050 board meeting, you will be presenting your idea to
the executive director, the board of Global Challenges 2050, and your
colleagues.
As a valued team member of Global Challenges 2050, the board has asked that
all program mangers vote for one of the projects presented at the meeting.
Much like a traditional meeting, you will have a chance to ask questions
about the projects submitted for consideration in the forum.
Audio or Video Presentation:
You can choose one of your discussion posts or written assignments. You are also permitted to explore a topic of your own choosing as long as it relates to the course content.
While a video is preferred, you have the option to submit an audio recording. If you are unable to record a video or audio presentation, please submit a written transcriipt
with at least 500 words.
Your audio or video recording should summarize the main points of your Global Challenges 2050 Project Proposal

1. Analyze the global challenge in the context of globalization.
2. Describe the human cost and who is impacted by the issue.
3. Determine the main causes of the issue (e.g., inequality, poverty, scarce resources, war, etc.).
4. Assess the importance of diplomacy and propose one solution to the problem.
5. Include a one-page preliminary budget ($10 million).
Hypothesize the price of inaction.
