Then we had to attack the problem head on, proposing a hypothetical solution to the issue (ideally one that was feasible). I chose to focus on Gender Equality in Saudi Arabia, proposing a school program that would create discussion amongst Saudi Arabian boys age 9-13 on Women's abuse and treatment within their country. While not an immediately doable fix, this is definitely food for thought.
