Details	In this presentation, we will introduce the first phase of the YGRP, “Changemakers in the Community”, which was launched in late May, 2022, with student participants and faculty advisors from five institutions, all of whom are members of the Asia-Pacific University Community Engagement Network (APUCEN). In June and July, pairs of students from each of the institutions conducted secondary and primary source research in the field on a specific issue, interviewing, and often volunteering with, an organization connected to their chosen theme. Following the fieldwork activities, and with the guidance of their faculty advisors, participants then compiled written reports, with transcribed interviews, photos and supplementary material, which was then uploaded to the project website.
