Submission format
A basic layout for this type of paper includes:
Introduction: The introduction should reveal some broad knowledge of the overall topic.
Part 1
Review of the literature: A literature review of how systems thinking approaches have been used to address the topic you have selected. Synthesise information from a variety of significant sources related to the major topic of the paper.
Part 2
Propose a method (with justification): Within this section you should propose a systems thinking method you would employ to address the issue. (You could also indicate how you would amend, innovate and/or build upon a systems thinking method that has already been used.) Justify why you are proposing the use of a method which has not been used (or innovation of a method that has already been used).
Conclusion: The conclusion should reinforce the major claims in a way that is not just a summary. Indicate the significance of what you are proposing beyond the scope of the paper. For example, clarify the significance of the method (or innovation) you have suggested: what new information will the application generate? how might it inform interventions and/or decision-makers? etc.
