GREEN 6 ASSIGNMENT

Open up this document. It is an IMF & World Bank scavenger hunt. These two international/supranational organizations greatly influence the global economy, especially as it pertains to developing or poverty-stricken nations. There are great things about the IMF and WB and there are also some downfalls and criticisms. What you should know is that they are NOT. THE. SAME. THING. Though they cooperate very well, they have different goals/objectives and meet these goals in different ways. 

Use the links provided to get answers to the questions on the scavenger hunt. Please do not Google the questions and use answers from any random website. I've provided links for a reason: These sites are thorough and quite accurate. 

When you finish, print out your word document and turn it in. (Note: If the printer in lab 118 is not working, submit your assignment using the Assignment Form below. Do not e-mail it to me. Do not Dropbox it. Use the Homework tool below, but only as a last resort!)
