How to write a research proposal


Editing - REQUESTS

Hi peter, thanks for such a wonderful contribution, actually i am more or less a novice in qualitative research but my zeal keeps increasing by the day, i will try to decode all the suggestions you offered, and put them into action. i suppose you are aware that nigeria leads in the current burden of polio globally, and more specipically the muslim dominated northern nigeria. over the past 5 years controversies lead to suspicions on the viability of polio vaccine, the consequence is what we are seeing today. though much has been done but not enough to reverse the current trend of polio pandermic. so my aims include search for a solution thruogh qualitative approach which i think will allow me to go in-depth to do this. and knowing the type of society i feel the clerics have a certain role to play, so that makes me think towads what you mention above: role of religion in responses to new problems and opportunities, but then i am a propective PhD candidate in the field of public health so my problem with this title is its too much of social science and i am not sure if i can fully convince my quantitative minded proposed supervisor, so at the moment i am working on the title: polio eradication in nigeria: turning problem to opportunity.so if i may go back to your first question, my goals are fasion a solution to the polio set backs and at the same time meet my personal acadermic needs for a good and innovative dessertation.concerning the questions you raised about the clerics current soucre of health information, what they know about global polio issues and contacts with local health workers, i suppose this are quite important quetions and are among the question i feel i should really know more about, so what are you suggesting? you fill i should think of a pilot study to assess this questions you raised or i should mould them into my main study? thanks and hoping you spare time once again to respond.

Hiit may be too late for Saleh but for me its just timely. i just started putting my ideas on paper, i would be glad if you can solve this problem: i want to do a qualitative research on perceptions of global polio redication among nigerian muslim clerics, i have difficulty in selecting appropriate theory to beging with.
