Details

The objective of this project is to develop a comprehensive proposal for establishing a Systems Worldview Institute at MacEwan University, in collaboration with Wayfinders Business Cooperative. The institute aims to serve as a pivotal resource for guiding public policy development across various public issues, with a focus on corporate social responsibility. The project will require learners to apply their research, analytical, and organizational skills to gather relevant data, analyze existing frameworks, and propose a structured plan for the institute. The proposal should address the institute's potential impact on policy development, its alignment with university goals, and its collaborative opportunities with Wayfinders. The project will involve tasks such as conducting literature reviews, stakeholder analysis, and drafting a detailed proposal document.

Deliverables

The deliverables for this project include a comprehensive proposal document outlining the vision, mission, and strategic plan for the Systems Worldview Institute. Additionally, learners will provide a stakeholder analysis report and a presentation summarizing key findings and recommendations. The proposal should include sections on potential funding sources, partnership opportunities, and an implementation timeline.
