– 2 Diagrams/Figures/ Tables are required to either to describe the area of concern or to define the problem or to demonstrate originality or usefulness of your idea. You must include two visual aids.

Provide an overall description of the problem area in a country setting (e.g. what is the status of mental health issue in the Philippines). Please note that the same problem may manifest itself in very different ways in a particular country 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 500 words)
Provide your problem statement and justify/argue why it is important to address it. Note that a problem statement is different from the overall description of the problem area in a country setting. The problem statement provides an unbiased and concise statement of the core problem that needs to be addressed 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 400 words)
Outline your creative (note that in BUSS4001, creative is defined as original and useful) idea to address the problem. Your creative idea can be a mix of creative processes and/or creative solutions. Your solution must be something ‘commerciable’ in form of goods or services. You also need to indicate the creative thinking technique(s) learned from Week 1-4 that you have used to come up with the solution (e.g. asking questions using the 5Whys etc…). Last but not least, you need to show convincing pieces of evidence/arguments that your idea is original and useful . Concepts discussed in Module 1, 2, 3 and 4 will help with this. You can include additional 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 (approx 600 words).
