For your final, you will propose solutions to address the racial disparities in diabetes prevalence for communities of color. According to the data, Black, Latinx and Asian American communities are significantly more likely to experience the burden of diabetes. You may choose to focus on one racial/ethnic group in particular, or you can take a broader approach and gear your solutions for all people of color. This final exercise is designed to evaluate your understanding of the modules resources, but the Socio-Ecological Model in particular (remember to circle back to the YouTube video in the beginning of the module for help!) . Please use the Robinson reading for guidance, and the CDC 2020 national diabetes report.
The final should be written in essay format, but unlike previous essays, will require less citations, since the proposals will be based on your own thinking. Discuss why you think your proposals would be effective, and do not feel you need to do further research to justify it. Overall, you should have 5 solutions proposed that disrupts diabetes through food practices, from eating to access. Feel free to use this chart for your paper, but be sure to explain your proposed solutions in your essay.
