Writing white papers
We are often asked about white papers. Here is a resource and two examples:
- How to Write a White Paper: A White Paper on White Papers, by Michael A. Stelzner
- A Pathway to Decarbonise the Shipping Sector by 2050, from the International Renewable Energy Agency — beyond the scope of any class project, but shows several important design and writing practices that are common in this genre of professional writing.
- Networking and Your Competitive Edge, from Cisco — Cisco is very clearly marketing itself and its brand in this white paper, but as is typical, maintaining the appearance of objectivity.
