FINAL PROJECT PROPOSAL: Magnus Opus and Exigence > Food Insecurity in Baltimore City
K,
Good plan, with a few comments by me: consider this a limited literature review. And, rethink the audience a bit. Most lay audiences are not focused on the genre of literature reviews. What if you think about a council of churches and faith-based organizations as your audience? These people who do communicate with citizens will appreciate your updated information.
You could narrow in some way, to focus on fresh fruits/vegetables and find literature that documents positive innovations to address this area. For example, physicians are starting to write scripts for fresh food.
Looking forward to what you develop with this fine idea; want to hear your plans for "right-sizing your inquiry" to be do-able.
