Research proposal: Child Soldiers

Instructions: This task-based exercise will demonstrate your ability to synthesize discipline specific material. You will be producing a 12-15 page report for Congress similar to the one located in your week 1 lesson folder. However, you will focus on a particular transnational crime. Just as in the model report, you should begin with a summary or ‘bottom line up front.’ Please study the table of contents carefully because you will be following the same structure. You may decide not to include all of the same elements, but you should have majority of them
