Writing Effectively at The World Health Organization

Preparation: Report introduction

Draft the introduction to your report now. If you chose to write your introduction earlier when you drafted the body of your report, review it now with this module section in mind.

Your introduction should include your main message, and provide sufficient background information to introduce your main message to your reader. A good introduction is usually short, providing orientation to the document, but not providing extraneous information.
