🎉 New Year, New Faces — Let's Re-Introduce Photovoice! 🎉 What exactly is photovoice? 📸 It’s more than just photos; it’s a participatory method that combines storytelling and advocacy to bridge the gap between people with lived experience and decision-makers. Whether you are just learning about it or pitching your next project, here is your chance to refresh your knowledge (and maybe grab some new buzzwords 😉). Let’s kick off 2025 with more stories, more voices, and more impact! 💛 📖 Drop your favorite photovoice term or definition in the comments! #Photovoice #ParticipatoryMethods #StorytellingForChange #ArtsBasedResearch #CommunityVoices #PhotovoiceWorldwide #VisualStorytelling #SocialChangeThroughArt #participatoryphotography #livedexperience #qualitativeresearch #actionresearch

What is Photovoice?
Photovoice puts cameras in the hands of people with valuable lived experience so they can use photos and text to describe their challenges and strengths, hopes and fears. The photos and captions foster respectful dialog and become valuable data for decision-making.
Using photovoice, you can:
-Bridge the gap between decisionmakers and communities
-Help people tell stories
-Build teamwork, communication, critical thinking, and advocacy skills
-Investigate lived experience and identify needs and strengths
-Gain a more holistic understanding of a situation
-Raise awareness, encourage dialog, and work toward positive change
Photovoice has been used to combat tobacco use, promote healthy eating, and empower individuals with disabilities to advocate for infrastructure improvements – and much, much more.
Photovoice participants around the globe include people living with chronic health conditions or disabilities, minorities, youth, veterans, immigrants, people living with mental illness, people experiencing homelessness, and many others.

I spent a few years learning all I could about the photovoice method, yearning to add elements of the method to my work as a teaching artist. At the time, I couldn't afford to travel to the UK for training. This is why I'm honored to work as part of the PhotovoiceWorldwide team. Dedicated to training and consultancy, PhotovoiceWorldwide has also built a community of practitioners of all levels. Let us know how we can support your work and/or training in photovoice facilitation.
