- Caroline Wang’s work 30 years ago set a high bar for both relevance and impact of social research to inform advocacy and policy change. In spite of the many challenges in participatory visual research that so many of us have grappled with over the years, we are left with Wang’s legacy of ‘let’s do more!’ as we work with participants as authors and co-producers of knowledge. One aspect of photovoice where we can ‘do more’ is around the idea and practice of visual data analysis fully driven and owned by participants. In this keynote address I offer what I hope will be compelling arguments for increasingly engaging participants in interpretation and analysis of photovoice data. My talk will view this topic through youth-focused examples in Canada, India, and South Africa and argue for why it is more urgent than ever that we ‘step up’ ways of ensuring that photovoice data interpretation and analysis be participant-led and owned.
