community-based research
Do you have an idea for a photovoice project, but are afraid you won’t be able to carry it out because of budget constraints? I'm here to tell you: Have no fear! Some of the most meaningful work I have seen — and been part of — has happened with borrowed phones, community hall tables, and photos printed at a corner shop. Don't let a lack of funding or resources destroy your dream.
Team members at the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) used photovoice to explore the impact of co-production in Recovery Colleges for people with mental health and substance use challenges. A strength of the project was its creative and multi-faceted approach to knowledge dissemination.
