Identify which framework you are using (Watson & Wilkinson or Jack & Holt) – a brief statement about why frameworks are used.
using the Watson & Wilkinson Framework use the areas outlined in the framework as SUB-HEADINGS
Population Structure
Link in relevant statistics – but ensure that they are referenced and compared to the larger area or to the national picture. The key is making sure that inferences are made from the statistics and that you are using refs to support your work – remember Level 6 writing.
Environment
Housing

Employment
From the above and using “red-light” data identify your 2 areas where intervention is needed. The 2 interventions need to be backed up by statistics and the approach to assist in improving the area must be MULTI-DISCIPLINARY!
Final paragraph – what have I learned – what will I take into my practice in community.
What kinds of information did the authors find in their primary sources?
Final Research Paper
Length: 5-7 pages + Bibliography
- Your paper should have a clear introduction or introductory section that does the following:
introduces your research topic and its historical context; briefly overviews the related
historiography and research trends or lack thereof; briefly discusses how your research fits with
or adds to the historiography; introduces your methodology—that is, the types of sources
examined by you for this paper and how they fit into your topic; and presents an argument
about your research topic. - The bulk of your paper should be making the case for your argument. You should examine the
major arguments of each author. How similar or different are the conclusions in the secondary
sources (i.e. articles) to each other and to relevant secondary sources from class. - In addition, you should discuss the types of primary sources examined by the authors to develop
their arguments. What kinds of information did the authors find in their primary sources? How
does that information support their findings? If an author includes statistical data (i.e. charts
and tables), what sources did they examine to produce such data or was that data borrowed
from another academic source? - Assess the validity or strength of the authors’ arguments on the basis of the sources, especially
primary sources (e.g. declassified government documents, lawsuits, laws/legal codes,
interviews, images, political speeches, etc.) they examined. If no primary sources were
examined or cited by the author, then is their work the opinion of a specialist with years of
research behind them or the opinion of a hobbyiest or a politicized opinion? If only one type of
primary source was examined by an author, assess how the examination of a more diverse set of
primary sources may have strengthened, added nuance, or possibly detracted from their
argument. How do the findings of one author, irrespective of source limitations or because of
their source selection, support or contradict the findings of another author? - Your primary sources must be formally and methodically introduced—don’t refer to them as
“my first” or “my second” primary source. Introduce and refer to each primary source as what
they are (e.g. the 2000 national census of Mexico). Summarize the contents of your primary
sources before examining and discussing their relevance to your research. That is, briefly explain
the kinds of information typically found in such primary sources and the specific historical
context in which each of your sources were produced. Then transition to your analysis. Were
there other types of primary sources that you could have examined to strengthen your research
1
findings? Lastly, determine how your analysis of primary sources supports or challenges or adds
nuance to the findings in your secondary sources. - Critically assess the validity of any popular beliefs, common misinformation, or stereotypes
relevant to your research topic. In what ways do non-academic popular sources inform or
misinform their audiences about the historical reality of your research topic? - Conclude. Your conclusion should remind the reader of the research question of your essay and
answer it, summarizing your analysis of the secondary and primary sources examined in your
paper. You’re welcome to make any final comments on the state of the field with regard to your
research topic.

Do NGOs have a set of processes for selecting suppliers?
Order details:
Task objective:
This order is about supporting the following: “Decision-making impact in the Flow of Relief
in Post-Conflict Areas: The case of NGOs in Gaza”.
Task description:
The research topic is about procurement in NGOs operating in these post-conflicted areas,
particularly finding out how procurement is according to theories, compare the findings to
what is implemented in practice, and try to find ways to improve the existing procedures.
Therefore, the way forward is to find gaps in the existing literature, elaborate a set of
questions around those gaps, conduct interviews of NGOs if post-conflict area (Gaza, as an
example), analyse the findings and propose, either a framework or a set of processes that
would improve the existing procurement procedures for those NGOs.
This order is about finding gaps in existing literature, which is the first step (as explained
earlier). This order is also an extension of the previous one #855702. Its aim is to briefly
analyse various references in relation to the following questions:
Q1: Do NGOs have a set of processes for selecting suppliers?
Q2: Do NGOs consider the elaboration of selection criteria when selecting suppliers?
Q3: What are the main selection criteria NGOs consider when selecting suppliers?
Q4: How do NGOs make decisions concerning procurement?
Q5: How do NGOs implement related decisions?
Please analyse at least 15 references per questions, please fill a table containing the
following:
- Reference
- Related question number
- Used Methodology
- Research Findings
- Implications and Consequences of Research
- Existing Research Gap
PS:
Please look for new references, please try to avoid mentioning ones used in the previous
order.
Once done, there will be other orders tackling other aspects of the research, for instance:
a/
For decision processes: - Did existing literature detail how to elaborate a complete set of processes for the
selection of suppliers? - Did existing literature propose a tentative set of processes for the selection of
suppliers?

Write an account on the rationale for and challenges which influence workforce planning
All organisations need a workforce with skills and behaviours that will better enable them to meet their objectives. In competitive environments, having the right people in the right place and at the right time continues to be a challenge.
Assessment brief CMI 512 has been designed to enable learners to evidence their understanding of the rationale for workforce planning and demonstrate know how to develop a workforce plan to meet organisational objectives.
» | assessment tasks and WORD COUNT |
Assessment brief CMI 512 features the following assessment tasks. Further detail is provided against each assessment task within the brief.
Guideline word count
The written word, however generated and recorded, is still expected to form the majority of assessable work produced by Learners at Level 5. The amount and volume of work for this unit should be broadly comparable to a word count of 2500-3000 words within a margin of +/-10%. The excessive use of word count is not grounds for referral, however the CMI reserve the right to return work to the Centre for editing and resubmission by the Learner.
The following are excluded from inclusion in word count, if used and not required by the assessment brief an introduction to a job role, organisation or department. index or contents pages, headings and sub headings, diagrams, charts and graphs, reference list or bibliography, reflective statement drawn from undertaking the assignment and how this has impacted on the learner’s work.
