b. Do you comprehensively understand the issue? Can you identify two or three distinct positions on the issue?

c. Create the title of your Policy Analysis. When creating a title for your Policy Analysis, consider how you can simultaneously capture the attention of your readers and communicate your position.

a. Are stakeholders groups exposed to unjustifiable risks? Are the stake holders you have identified especially vulnerable?

b. Are any of your stakeholders marginalized within society? Are they part of a highly privileged social group?

c. What are the likely consequences of ignoring stakeholders’ needs? Remember to write concise answers and to consider a range of alternative outcomes – never claim that one set of consequences is inevitable.

a. Position statement:What is your position on the issue? Is it specific and clear? State it in one or two sentences.

b. Propose a course of action:What should be done to solve the problem? Consider the broad approach and specific practical steps or measures that need to be taken and by whom.Is the solution you propose feasible and implementable?

5. ARGUMENTATION AND EVIDENCE

The last section of your memorandum should prove why your proposal will be effective. Ask yourself why the policy you have designed will produce the outcomes that you claim it will have. If your policy responses are relatively limited, you should use this section to justify your choice by using a lot of your available word-count to explain why the decision that you support will have a positive impact on the state – explain, for instance, why ratifying a trade agreement will be good for your state’s exporters and agricultural industry.

a. What evidence will you use to support this section of your paper?

b. Do you have enough evidence to support all elements of your paper? (i.e., to introduce and define the issue, to show the importance of the issue, to support your position, to refute counter-arguments, etc.)
