Exploring Student Perspectives through Transect Walk and Resource Mapping: A Case Study of ULAB Campus

Category: Participatory Research | Communication for Development (C4D) | Academic Project


This participatory research project explores students’ experiences and perspectives at the University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh (ULAB) using Transect Walk, Resource Mapping, and Farmers Field School (FFS) methodologies. By actively engaging students as co-researchers, the study identifies key strengths and challenges within the campus environment, including classrooms, library, cafeteria, toilets, common spaces, and recreational areas. Based on participants' insights, the project proposes practical, student-centered recommendations to improve campus facilities, promote sustainable development, and strengthen student participation in institutional decision-making.
