Consider Cultural Diversity

Don't forget to think about how cultural diversity impacts your topic. Consider the following questions:

  • How does cultural diversity change or influence the problem I want to solve?
  • How does my own cultural background impact my own biases and understanding of the problem?
  • How does this global problem impact various cultures, groups, and communities differently?
  • How do various cultures view this problem differently?
  • Do all individuals and all cultures have equal opportunities to impact and solve your chosen global problem?
  • Where and why are ideas about your topic minimized on a global scale?
  • How does examining ideas on your topic from multiple cultures change the way you might think about it?
