Hi Pawel,
Photovoice is a form of participatory action research (developed by Wang &
Burris) that involves the use of photographs and narratives to document
community-based concerns on health or other issues, with the primary goal
of charting a process for changing policy and improving services for the
community. I'm trying to connect with researchers, providers or
policymakers who have employed photovoice in some aspect of their work or
studies.
