Perspectives
This work is the result of a collective passion among researchers in Malaysia, Indonesia, and the Philippines. We are grateful for the opportunity to convene and receive seed funding from the Southeast Asian Indigenous Psychology Network. Our work began in 2021 and concluded with this publication in 2025. We extend our thanks to the students who shared their stories with us and with the world.
