Micro-Activity #10: Brainstorming Research Topics

Issues that I want to know more about and hopefully find some solutions :

Homelessness: homeless people represents  17 people per 10,000 in the population and that is a huge number. Before I came here I never imagined that America is suffering from such a thing. I thought it only happens in poor countries, that’s why I want to know more about the reasons and how how they may be solved in the long or short term.

Depression and suicide: It is a very important issue that concerns me. especially after the pandemic I think it become more common, because of the change in work or school environment and the unstable positions. We all were forced to stay at home for long time which may affected many people that are living alone far from their families.

Inequality: that has been America’s big issue for years. That includes gender inequality, racial and Ethnicity inequality.

Bullying: I want to learn about cyberbullying and its impact on adults and children’s mental health.

    Great start. Now you want to narrow down. For example, what do you want to know about homelessness in America? What are some issues related to homelessness that you want to know more about.
