Great topic. Learning from everyone

In an ideal world the student athletes that I work with would be more self motivated to complete course work even when it isn't related to the NFL or the Olympics and they would not be so resistant to doing their course work in a timely manner.

the humanitarian crisis in Yemen would be solved. This would mean that all Yemenis would have access to food, water, shelter, medical care, education, and employment opportunities. It would also mean that Yemen would be at peace and that all Yemenis would be safe and secure.

All Yemenis would have access to food. There would be no more hunger in Yemen. All Yemenis would have enough to eat, even during times of drought or conflict.

Achieving this ideal world will require a concerted effort from the international community. We must work together to end the conflict in Yemen, provide humanitarian assistance to those in need, and support the Yemeni people in rebuilding their country.

I think you have done a great job of redefining your problem statement to be more specific and to focus on the root cause of the problem.

In your original problem statement, you were focusing on the symptom of the problem, which is not being able to achieve national accreditation. However, in your redefined problem statement, you are focusing on the root cause of the problem, which is that many Main Street programs have difficulty with fundraising, volunteerism, and creating a lasting, positive impact on their historic downtowns.

Your redefined problem statement is also more actionable. It is clear that you are trying to help Main Street programs overcome these challenges and become more effective.

Here are some specific things that your company can do to help Main Street programs overcome these challenges:

Provide training and resources on fundraising, volunteer management, and program development.
Help Main Street programs to develop strategic plans and to track their progress.
Connect Main Street programs with other resources and support networks.
Advocate for policies that support Main Street programs.
I am confident that your company can make a real difference in the lives of Main Street programs and in the communities that they serve. Thank you for your work in this important area.

In world where Malawi has well structured markets it would be a developing country, far much better from the way it is right now, it is underdeveloped.
It would have a positive trade balance and it would also grow economically and this economic growth would lead to sustainable development

Young graduates aged 18-25 have decent jobs that enable them to support themselves financially. They are able to meet their basic needs, ensure the well-being of their families and contribute to the development of their communities. They are more fulfilled and enjoy lasting social, physical, psychological and emotional well-being, enabling the society in which they live to progress more effectively.

The ideal world after my problem is solved is African Students working on their purpose Wholistically

I envision a future where every girl in rural communities is equipped with the education, skills, and confidence to lead thriving, independent lives, driving sustainable community development and contributing to a prosperous world.

Managing screen time will improve the psychological development, It will also be beneficial to the physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional development of children and young adults

This is fantastic point of view

Since diving into the root cause of the issue helps us to define the actual problem, I think asking question on situation helped to reach the root of the problem. The increase in crime rate is due to youth involved in drugs abuse who were involved in theft and looting people for money to buy drugs. Asking question further on it revealed that drugs is easily available in the surrounding area of camp.

In an ideal world where the problem of limited access to resources and opportunities for less privileged individuals is solved, we could envision a society that looks something like this:

Equitable access to resources: All individuals, regardless of their background or circumstances, have access to essential resources such as quality education, healthcare, housing, and nutritious food. This would help to level the playing field and provide everyone with the foundation they need to thrive.

Strong social safety net: A robust social safety net is in place to support individuals and families who are facing economic hardship or other challenges. This could include programs such as universal healthcare, affordable childcare, and unemployment benefits.

Prosperous communities: Communities are thriving and resilient, with strong local economies, vibrant civic life, and a sense of shared purpose. This would create a positive feedback loop, where individuals have the opportunity to contribute and give back to their communities, further strengthening them.

Reduced inequality: Income and wealth inequality have been reduced, with greater opportunities for upward mobility and a fairer distribution of resources. This would create a more just and equitable society where everyone has a chance to succeed.

Greater innovation and growth: With greater access to resources and opportunities, individuals are able to innovate and pursue new ideas, leading to increased growth and prosperity for everyone. This could drive advancements in fields such as technology, medicine, and sustainability.

Sustainability and resilience: The environment and natural resources are being sustainably managed and protected, ensuring a thriving planet for future generations. This would create a more resilient and prosperous world for all.

Overall, this ideal world would be characterized by equity, opportunity, and a shared commitment to building thriving communities and a better future for all.

Other factors that can affect teachers to stay include, increases in salary and allowances such as house allowance, hardship allowance and transport allowance. Good working environment can also motivate teachers to stay longer in one location.
Health insurance availability will also be an added factor under teachers' welfare. A good working relation with the surrounding community and security, will also be an important factor.
The other factor that can make the teachers to stay is having personal security in the station of work.

"I strongly believe in a world where the needs of underprivileged children, women, men, youths, and communities are met, making it an ideal and better place to live.

Identifying beneficiaries' needs and interests involves understanding the specific requirements, challenges, and desires of the individuals or groups who will benefit from a program, project, or intervention. This process is essential for designing targeted and effective solutions that address the root causes of a problem and meet the unique circumstances of the beneficiaries. Here's how the identification of beneficiaries' needs and interests typically occurs:

Research and Data Analysis: Conduct research and gather data to understand the demographic characteristics, socio-economic status, and health indicators of the target population. Analyze existing data sources such as surveys, census reports, health records, and community assessments to identify prevalent issues and trends related to the problem at hand.

Stakeholder Consultation: Engage with stakeholders who have direct knowledge or experience working with the target beneficiaries. This may include community leaders, healthcare providers, social workers, local government officials, and representatives from non-profit organizations. Consultation sessions, focus group discussions, and interviews can provide valuable insights into the needs, priorities, and preferences of the beneficiaries.

Needs Assessment: Conduct a needs assessment to systematically identify the specific needs and challenges faced by the beneficiaries. This may involve using standardized tools such as surveys, questionnaires, or interviews to collect information on various aspects related to the problem, including access to services, knowledge gaps, barriers to behavior change, and socio-economic constraints.

Sustainable Resource Management: Waste would be viewed as a valuable resource rather than a burden. Recycling and waste-to-energy initiatives would be widespread, allowing us to recover valuable materials and generate clean energy while minimizing the depletion of natural resources.

In an ideal world, where everyone has the choice and opportunity to do what they are meant to do without compromising their basic needs.

Hi Oresanya! My goal is also similar to empowering the youth of economically disadvantaged communities. Happy to connect.

I imagine a world where every child, regardless of the challenges they face such as conflict, natural disasters, or emergencies, has the right to grow up in a secure and welcoming environment. This environment should support their development from early childhood to adolescence, allowing them to fulfill their potential equally.

Empowered Women, Thriving Economy:

Equal Education: Classrooms buzz with girls and boys alike, receiving quality instruction that unlocks their full potential.
Bridging the Gap: Women are well-represented in all professions, shattering glass ceilings and contributing their talents across every sector.
Financial Independence: Women confidently run businesses, manage their finances, and actively participate in the formal economy.
Affordable Childcare: Accessible and high-quality childcare facilities allow parents, especially mothers, to pursue careers without worry.
Healthy and Nurtured Children:

Strong Foundations: Every child enjoys a safe and secure home, free from violence, neglect, and exploitation.
Education for All: Quality education is no longer a privilege, but a right enjoyed by all children, regardless of background.
Nourished Future: Nutritious food is readily available, ensuring children grow up healthy and reach their full physical and mental potential.
Holistic Wellbeing: Comprehensive healthcare safeguards children's health, with preventive care and prompt treatment for illnesses.

this same problem is already being solved through the implementation of the same project in other sub-Saharan countries that are supported by IFAD

I am enjoying the topic. I work on food repurposing and feeding those in need, but by running through this module it is becoming clear that we need to pivot to other activities to address root causes of homelessness and a lack of social housing

The ideal world in which my problem is solved is perhaps where there is availability and equity in resources so that whatever is needed for the success of the mission happens. Also, education and literacy on technology and financial knowledge would be a key factor.

i envision a world where children would be free to study without fear of wars or hindrance to their education

this is such a great idea. Millions of lives would be saved

What I have learn untill now in those thwoo modules is the aproach of problem statement and beneficiaries identification. Bigining the right way will make the project clearer and not mixing the objectives of every step
