General Instructions: In this activity, you will write a research proposal that examines the morbidity, mortality, and criteria of vascular diseases with the greatest impact in your country. The proposal should include the following subsections, each developed in no more than 200 words.

Step 1 - Review: Consider and review the following points, and if necessary, gather updated information for your writing (from up to five years ago).

Choose a potential research topic based on the epidemiological data of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and its associated lifestyle, medical, and psychosocial risk factors in your country. Select a population group from the following: women, older people, ethnic minorities, or migrants.

At the end of the investigation, include a subsection for proposals: consider the latest evidence-based guidelines for managing individuals with multifactorial cardiovascular risk profiles. Outline the key critical success factors for delivering, and discuss what could be the most important health policies for effective CVD prevention.

Step 2 - Respond: Taking into account the points mentioned above, write brief paragraphs explaining and justifying your research topic, proposal, and chosen population, considering your context. Keep in mind that each explanation should not exceed 200 words.

• What would be the research topic?
• Provide a summarized paragraph to explain the justification.
• What methodology and characteristics would the research have?
• Mention possible titles for the content of your theoretical framework (at least five).
• What data collection tools would you use?
• What measures or actions would you propose once your research problem has been analyzed? (Campaigns, workshops, or other awareness actions aimed at your study population).

Step 3 - Share: To share your work, click the "Add a new discussion topic" button under this post and paste your work into the "Message" box.
