Learn about the benefits of a plant-based diet for environmental and social justice. Then, share this information with the public by writing a series of articles elaborating on the connection between food choices and the environment. These articles will be eligible to be posted on the Switch4Good blog.
Stages:
Investigation
Research and identify potential topics within the broader topic of food choices and the environment.
Survey your peer group or whoever your target audience is to better understand what information they lack or what they wish they knew more about.
Preparation and Planning
Determine the focus of research and writing based on criteria such as urgency of the issue, level of public awareness, and personal interest.
Determine the scope of research and writing to cover the subject matter. Each article should be at least 1,000 words long, and the project requires at least 3 articles, but it is up to you if you’d like to write about three topics or write a series about one topic.
Research the connection between food and environment independently and with the support of Switch4Good materials and team.
Organize research, draft a thesis statement, and write an outline.
Action/Demonstration
Write!
Reach out to personal, professional, and academic connections for edits and revisions. Lucy from Switch4Good is also available for review at any point during these steps.
Repeat steps up to this point for each article written.
Deliverables:
Documentation of research and planning (notes, outline, thesis statement, etc.)
Documentation of editing and revision (track changes, comments, edited and final drafts, etc.)
Final drafts of at least three articles of at least 1,000 words each
