CAE - A Proposal

You are on the planning committee representing your country 
for an international cultural festival in London. 
Write a proposal for the festival organiser suggesting 
what should be included in the festival to represent the culture 
of your country and explaining why you think the aspects 
you have chosen would be of special interest.


Write your proposal in 220-260 words.


What is required in the writing of a proposal?

A proposal is similar in format, organisation and register to a report. It is likely to have a formal register and to be clearly organised into paragraphs, preferably with each section under an appropriate heading.
While a report would usually invite candidates to give the target reader feedback on an event or situation that has already happened, a proposal is forward-looking. Candidates are given a situation or problem and are invited to propose a course of action. There is, therefore, often an element of persuasion involved.
