“…This study may be limited by its small sample size, as there were 25 participants. However, many other photovoice studies have less than 20 participants [ 10 , 11 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 22 , 23 , 24 ]. Further, our 25 participants submitted 238 photographs which were analyzed leading to identification of six main themes.…”

“…The photovoice method provides a means for participants to record and reflect on their situations or surroundings, promote conversation and understanding of personal and/or community issues, and engage community and/or policy stakeholders in dialogue related to situational or community improvements. Photovoice has been applied as a health promotion strategy [ 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Further, Cardarelli et al suggested that photovoice is an especially useful method for researching vulnerable populations which have been either misrepresented or not represented at all by the media [ 11 ].…”

Rural Appalachian Kentucky experiences disproportionately high cancer incidence and mortality rates. This cancer burden is due to social determinants of health and cultural factors prominent in the region. The firsthand experiences of community members—especially young people—can highlight these factors and identify areas for improvement. The purpose of this study was to encourage Appalachian Kentucky youth to consider determinants of cancer and visualize the effects that cancer has on their families or communities by asking them to take photographs of cancer-related objects around them. Content analysis was performed on 238 photographs submitted by 25 students, and photographs were organized into themes, subthemes, and subtopics. The six themes that emerged were risk factors and exposures, marketing, awareness and support, health care, experiences, and metaphorical representations. Many of the submitted photographs aligned with cultural, environmental and/or situational factors prevalent in Appalachian Kentucky. Of the submitted photographs, 54 were displayed as an installment in two Kentucky art galleries. Viewer comments at the exhibitions demonstrated that young community members can educate and motivate change in those around them. Ultimately, this project demonstrates that young community members can recognize cancer-related issues around them and connect personal experiences back to the larger Appalachian Kentucky cancer disparity while also having an impact on other community members.

“…Following the baseline surveys, students in the intervention arm will receive instructions to participate in photovoice 22. This is an established23 24 qualitative participatory method through which adolescents can pictorially take impressions of health facilitators and barriers in their school and community. Pictures will be uploaded onto a secure platform, reviewed and sorted by trained personnel, ensuring that no inappropriate photos are included.…”

IntroductionComprehensive local data on adolescent health are often lacking, particularly in lower resource settings. Furthermore, there are knowledge gaps around which interventions are effective to support healthy behaviours. This study generates health information for students from cities in four middle-income countries to plan, implement and subsequently evaluate a package of interventions to improve health outcomes.Methods and analysisWe will conduct a cluster randomised controlled trial in schools in Fez, Morocco; Jaipur, India; Saint Catherine Parish, Jamaica; and Sekondi-Takoradi, Ghana. In each city, approximately 30 schools will be randomly selected and assigned to the control or intervention arm. Baseline data collection includes three components. First, a Global School Health Policies and Practices Survey (G-SHPPS) to be completed by principals of all selected schools. Second, a Global School-based Student Health Survey (GSHS) to be administered to a target sample of n=3153 13–17 years old students of randomly selected classes of these schools, including questions on alcohol, tobacco and drug use, diet, hygiene, mental health, physical activity, protective factors, sexual behaviours, violence and injury. Third, a study validating the GSHS physical activity questions against wrist-worn accelerometry in one randomly selected class in each control school (n approximately 300 students per city). Intervention schools will develop a suite of interventions using a participatory approach driven by students and involving parents/guardians, teachers and community stakeholders. Interventions will aim to change existing structures and policies at schools to positively influence students’ behaviour, using the collected data and guided by the framework forMaking Every School a Health Promoting School. Outcomes will be assessed for differential change after a 2-year follow-up.Ethics and disseminationThe study was approved by WHO’s Research Ethics Review Committee; by the Jodhpur School of Public Health’s Institutional Review Board for Jaipur, India; by the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research Institutional Review Board for Sekondi-Takoradi, Ghana; by the Ministry of Health and Wellness’ Advisory Panel on Ethics and Medico-Legal Affairs for St Catherine Parish, Jamaica, and by the Comité d’éthique pour la recherche biomédicale of the Université Mohammed V of Rabat for Fez, Morocco. Findings will be shared through open access publications and conferences.Trial registration numberNCT04963426.

“…However, knowledge about developing critical perspectives on structural systems of oppression is underrepresented in photovoice literature (Liebenberg, 2018;Sanon, Evans-Agnew and Boutain, 2014;Coemans et al, 2019;Derr and Simons, 2020). Multiple (scoping) reviews-in diverse fields-focus on scholars' difficulties to reach policy makers with outcomes of their photovoice project, but they pay little attention to the critical reflection of participants (Dassah et al, 2017;Mysyuk and Huisman, 2020;Han and Oliffe, 2016;Fountain et al, 2021;Suprapto and Sunarti, 2020;Ilagan et al, 2020;Halvorsrud et al, 2021;Lofton and Grant, 2021). Articles that focus on developing critical consciousness with participants remain…”

SHORT SUMMARY The health of paid care workers in long-term care is under pressure, but not for all care workers alike (chapter 1 and 2). Therefore, this thesis addresses health inequities among paid care workers. This thesis presents several participatory studies which were conducted by the author, together with paid care workers and a professional photographer. These studies unravel the health strategies of women (chapter 3) and men (chapter 4) working in long-term care and the health issues of self-employed care workers (chapter 5) before and during (chapter 6) the COVID-19 pandemic. All studies were done from a critical gender, diversity-sensitive and intersectional perspective. They present insights for care workers, occupational health professionals, HRM professionals and policy makers in long-term care. This thesis is also relevant for Participatory Health Researchers (PHR) who aim to make their research more critical and diversity-sensitive, as it explores the relevance of intersectionality for PHR (chapter 7 and 8). A series of portraits ‘What You Don’t See’, made by photographer Janine Schrijver in co-creation with care workers and the author, is part of the research presented in this thesis (chapter 9). These portraits address urgent health issues that often remain invisible, including racism and poverty, which squeezes paid care workers out of the organizations into self-employment. Concerns about the health of paid care workers are a persistent societal issue in the Netherlands. They have become increasingly pressing as more and more paid care workers find themselves in precarious positions, no longer able to sustain their own health or support themselves financially. Therefore, this thesis explores the economic, societal and political forces that contribute to the precarization of paid care workers in the Netherlands (chapter 10). Protecting, maintaining and repairing the health of paid care workers is not just an issue of care workers or employers. It is a societal issue and shaped by political choices
