Explain why these strategies or measures partially resolved or did not resolve the health inequity.
The purpose of the final assignment on environmental degradation and justice is for you to culminate the learning achieved in the course by proposing a solution to one of the many areas of environmental injustice discussed in the previous weeks, such as locating hazardous waste industries in poorer communities, reduced life expectancies in inner city communities, unsafe housing predominantly impacting minorities, etc. Choose an environmental health, human health, or economic development injustice that
- has been addressed in some form by policy and/or regulatory strategies, and
- has been the subject of a current emergency management measure or measures.
After you select your injustice, compose a study that covers the following:
- Compose a thesis statement (Links to an external site.) that addresses your chosen injustice.
- Examine the history of your chosen injustice. Be sure to include the following:
- Identify the affected geographic area (e.g., local, national, or international).
- Describe the population or populations affected, including the culture and or race.
- Analyze the health issues experienced by the population or populations affected.
- Assess the existing policy or regulatory strategies and emergency management measure or measures.
- Explain why these strategies or measures partially resolved or did not resolve the health inequity.
- Propose a solution to your selected environmental health, human health, or economic development injustice.
- Justify your solution with supporting evidence by highlighting expected costs and resources needed. Be mindful of the estimated costs, as you likely will need to highlight an existing program whose funding would decrease to support yours.
- Contrast your proposed solution with expected counterarguments or views, including limitations, to your solution.
- Close with a defense of your proposed solution against the above counterarguments that is backed by supporting evidence.
- Conclude your assignment with a restatement of your thesis and solution.

Explain if you had a nuanced understanding of how garbage and sewage disappeared yet posed a continued hazard to humanity.
Many forms of environmental degradation are caused by entities and factors beyond our individual control. Some, however, are factors we each can influence, and can do so nearly every day of our lives. Think about what you have learned during this week about solid and liquid waste.
In your journal entry, consider your level of knowledge about the processing and fate of materials that enter the waste stream before you took the class. In your journal,
- Explain if you had a nuanced understanding of how garbage and sewage disappeared yet posed a continued hazard to humanity.
- Critique your awareness: Did you worry about these wastes or just thought that they were someone else’s problem (if, while being honest, you thought about it much at all)?
- Examine which ethnic groups are more commonly impacted by solid and liquid waste pollution and why.
- Conclude with how your thinking has changed since taking this class.
- Share how your attitudes and planned actions have changed regarding waste disposal.

Developing an Academic and Professional Network
When was the last time you read Meditation XVII of John Donne’s Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions?
Unless you are a student of seventeenth-century poetry, you may not be all that familiar with this piece. However, you may be much more familiar with one of its well-known phrases: “No man is an island…”.
As you begin your journey toward achieving your academic and professional goals, you have a great opportunity to network with academics and professionals who can help ensure you do not travel alone. This network can help to clarify your own vision for success and can help guide you now and in the future. To paraphrase Donne, no one is an island.
Begin creating an academic and professional network by identifying which academic and professional connections and resources with which you need to collaborate to succeed in your MSN program and as a practicing nurse.
To Prepare:
- Consider individuals, departments, teams, and/or resources within Walden University and within your profession that you believe can support your academic and professional success.
- Identify at least two academic and at least two professional individuals, colleagues, or teams that might help you succeed in your MSN program and as a practicing nurse.
- Download the Academic Success and Professional Development Plan Template.

CONFLICT RESOLUTION
Preparation
Conflict is inevitable among members of any team, but especially during high stress situations, such as sometimes occur in health care. As a health care leader, you will be called upon to resolve conflict on your team and within your organization. Not only will you have to manage conflict that occurs with you directly, but you will also have to handle conflict situations where you were not involved and not present.
Instructions
Create a PowerPoint deck with speaking notes for a presentation you would give to hospital leadership to prepare them to handle situations such as the one in the Vila Health: Conflict Resolution simulation. When you have created your PowerPoint deck, create an audio recording in which you present the information in your PowerPoint deck.
You are free to organize your presentation in whatever way you like. The following outline describes one way to structure your PowerPoint presentation:
Cover slide: One slide that includes the name and number of the course, the name of the assignment, submission date, and your name and contact information.
Introduction slide: One slide that provides a brief overview of conflict resolution as it relates to the incident described in the Vila Health simulation. This is the elevator speech of the simulation and captures an overview in a list format. Provide two short paragraphs in the speaking notes to support the points made in the list.
Background slide: One slide that explains the background of the incident described in the Vila Health simulation.
Analysis of the situation: A section of two slides that explains how a lack of cultural competence can compound already stressful situations and impede collaboration.
Describe the communication techniques that were used in this simulation that should be avoided in situations that involve diverse cultures.
Communication slide 1: One slide that lists at least two communication strategies that leadership can use to help the organization resolve conflicts like the one in the simulation. These should be communication strategies that hospital leadership should promote within the organization going forward to resolve conflict like this in the future.
Communication slide 2: One slide that explains the role of relationships in communication.
You may wish to discuss relationships between leaders and followers and leaders overseeing teams.
Communication slide 3: One slide that explains the role of communication in teamwork and collaboration.
Application of literature to the case study: One slide that recommends strategies that could be implemented to improve the relationships between nursing and housekeeping in the Vila Health simulation.
Summary: One slide that sums up the situation in the Vila Health simulation.
References: This section should list, in APA format, the scholarly references used to support the communication strategies for conflict resolution and the role of relationships in communication.
Additional Requirements
Length: The recorded presentation should be between 5–10 minutes in length.
References: Cite at least three references from peer-reviewed journals, in addition to your textbook.
