Under our Dr. Paul Hargrave Memorial Centre Human Development Project (July 2025 – December 2026), we conducted two 11-days residential training courses.

Training a total of 22 youth (12 men and 11 women) into Research Change Agents. The original target was to train 30, and so we attained a 73.3% success rate.

Except one who was 44 years, the beneficiaries were aged 20-35 years.

Beneficiaries applied and were selected from Acholi (3), Lango (16), Teso (2) and Karamoja (1).

Cohort 7 trained Research Change Agents in participatory action research design. Identifying problems and articulating research proposals.

Cohort 8 trained Research Change Agents in participatory action research writing – fact-based story telling. Amplifying grassroots voice, advocating for public services delivery and social justice.

Indeed, Project trained Research Change Agents are actively using social media, particularly TikTok, to elevate and amplify voices of their respective communities on social justice issues.
