Your report should be written in report style and include the following sections. You may add more sections as you see appropriate. Failure to include any of these sections will lead to a deduction in marks but including too many will mean you may compromise depth.
Sections to include in your report
Comparative development indicators

1) Income level
2) Poverty & inequality
3) The structure of the economy
4) Economic performance over last five –ten years
This is a minimum requirement but you may also use social indicators or any data that you think will help to give an overview of that country’s characteristics and economic position
