Photovoice is a form of participatory action research, which has
been gaining use and momentum since its inception in the mid-1990s.
Within the enactment of this methodology, research participants are
invited to document aspects of their lives through photography and
then provide written or oral accounts of the images they create.
Designed to situate participants as experts on their lives and
their experiences, photovoice is a powerful and visceral approach
to policy change efforts. In this book, the photovoice methodology
is conceptualized as being comprised of eight steps:
identification, invitation, education, documentation, narration,
ideation, presentation, and confirmation. Each of the steps is
explained and expanded upon, and insights are drawn from the extant
photovoice literature and the author's personal experience. In
addition, attention is given to the history of photography and
inquiry, theoretical underpinnings and aims of the methodology,
ethical considerations, methods and procedures, approaches to data
analysis, and photovoice exhibitions. Finally, the author has
attended to some aspects of photovoice that have historically been
left unattended, such as: building a conceptual framework for a
photovoice study, viewing the photovoice exhibition as a site of
inquiry, and thinking through the ways in which ever-evolving
photography technologies can and should impact decision-making
throughout the photovoice process. While many texts exist that
touch on and/or address photovoice, this is the first book solely
dedicated to the entirety of the photovoice methodology - from
theory to exhibition. Built as a practical guide, readers will find
a wealth of information, resources, and advice within this book.
Educators, students, and academic researchers will find this an
accessible and compassionate text, one that will be a trusted
companion while on the photovoice project journey.
