As you prepare to write this paper the following steps are suggested in this order:

• You will also find it extremely helpful to return to the WHO’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) link in the 2nd paragraph above for information about current efforts to address global issues. Current statistics related to COVID and SDGs, country by country, are linked there.

• You looked at the healthcare model when you completed your research template. The structure of the healthcare system in your selected country plays a major role in the management of the health issue and anticipating or designing nursing interventions.  So it is very critical to become more informed about these elements.
