The result of the continuous area survey and the study of Area-based research management of The Far Eastern University has originated two research objectives which are 1) to create an appropriate innovation for Sarapee sub-district community in three dimensions: economic, social and environmental., and 2) to improve the system and mechanism for socially-engaged research of The Far Eastern University which covered 10 villages of Sarapee sub-district community.

The results were as follows; the holistic study of the community context, the process of exchange knowledge sharing between researchers and targeted community, the adjustment of community development process, the solutions proposed by the people participation process, which is suitable for the semi-urban, semi-rural community such as the search of cultural capital of the community through the collection of local history, the development of the stable career group and the development of working process based on cooperation rather than dictation.
