“…In 2014 the course successfully employed photovoice research to explore safe and unsafe places on campus and an article was co-authored with some of the students, (see Ngabaza, Bojarczuk, Masuku and Roelfse 2015). Photovoice has been successfully used with students in other similar local (Kessi 2011) and international contexts (see Goodhart, Hsu and Baek 2006;Strack and Magil 2004). In 2015, the research question asked students "what aspects of your social identity facilitate your feeling empowered/ disempowered on this campus?"…”

This paper uses Nancy Fraser's concept of participatory parity to reflect on data gathered by and from third year students in a final year research module in the Women's and Gender Studies Department at the University of the Western Cape in 2015. During the course students developed a research proposal, collected and shared data with other students, and then used this data to write a final (externally examinable) research report. Employing a participatory photovoice methodology, the students' research focused on ways in which social and group identities had shaped their experiences of feeling empowered and disempowered on campus. Each student took two photos representing experiences of feeling empowered and two of feeling disempowered on campus and wrote narratives of about 300 words explaining and describing the experience foregrounded by each image. Students shared these narratives and accompanying images with each other, their teachers and the wider university community through a public exhibition in the library. In the paper we draw on Fraser's concepts of maldistribution, misrecognition and misrepresentation to highlight constraints to equal participation identified by students.

“…Participants choose several photographs each that best convey their ideas, and for those images they write a brief narrative or even just a caption. Often, the final step involves sharing their images and narratives with policymakers or community members, in order to initiate dialogues that may bring about social change regarding the issue being addressed (see Carleson et al 2006;Kroeger et al 2004;Riley and Manias 2004;Stevens 2006;Walter Goodhart et al 2006;Wang et al 2004Wang et al , 2007.…”

Embarking on a study in which we hope to gain a contextualized understanding of the experiences of adolescent girls who use crystal methamphetamines, it is crucial for us to select a research methodology congruent with our aims. In the current article, we share the theoretical basis and decision making process that has lead us to a multi-modal method integrating images along with dialogue in the interviews. We provide a rationale for our belief that the knowledge and meanings that emerge throughout this process are co-constructed by researchers and participants together. We believe it is helpful for researchers to consider the social responsibility and ethical implications that come with research before data collection begins. Thus, an explicit discussion of the very real impact and potential of qualitative research is introduced here as connections between qualitative research methods with Child and Youth Care practice are highlighted. Our intention is not to present findings as this is an in-progress study, but to open the floor to further questioning and dialogue along a similar vein. Our hope is that such dialogue can render qualitative research that is more relevant to the very complex lives to which we aim to contribute in our studies and practice.

“…Só com o passar dos anos, outras questões mais voltadas ao campo social, cultural e identitário foram acrescentadas aos estudos que utilizavam este método. Com a ampliação deste campo de atuação, a metodologia passou a ser frequentemente aplicada nas populações minoritárias e em contextos de vulnerabilidade e exclusão, propondo-se a apontar caminhos e pontos de reflexão sobre as circunstâncias que envolvem seus membros na esperança de melhorias futuras, num processo de incidência politica e advocacy (DAW, 2011;GOODHART et al, 2006;NEWMAN, 2010).…”
