This online professional development course equips you with the content, resources, and hands-on practice needed to adapt photovoice to your research, teaching, program, or clinical context. The course meets for five online sessions, two hours each.
Since 1992, photovoice has been used around the world to explore personal, group, and community experiences – most often in public health – and to advocate for meaningful change. It is a participatory approach that combines photography, discussion, writing, and advocacy, centering the voices and viewpoints of co-researchers and participants. Through photos, captions, and themes, photovoice surfaces both strengths and challenges, and helps bring communities, organizations, and policymakers together to acknowledge and address them.
A major focus of the course is the ethics and safety of reflecting on lives and communities through photography. You will leave with concrete concepts, guidelines, and strategies for conducting photovoice work responsibly and effectively. The interactive online format provides hands-on experience in adapting photovoice to your context.
The 5 sessions are:
- Session 1: Foundations of Photovoice
- Session 2: Photovoice Ethics
- Session 3: Working with Photos and Text
- Session 4: Approaches to Analysis and Reaching Audiences
- Session 5: Planning For Photovoice
Upon course completion, participants will receive a Training Certificate and have the knowledge, skills, and tools to implement their Photovoice Plan.
