“…Furthermore, Photovoice has been used in various settings with numerous different groups essentially to provide these individuals with a "voice" to document their perspective-usually a perspective not frequently sought after (Castleden, Garvin, & First Nation, 2008;Chilton, Rabinowich, Council, & Breaux, 2009;Schwartz, Sable, Dannerbeck, & Campbell, 2007;Strack, Magnill, & McDonagh, 2004;Wang, Cash, & Powers, 2000;Wang & Pies, 2004). Photovoice has also been used specifically with cancer survivors (Lopez et al, 2005).…”

“…An important component of using Photovoice is what is done after the pictures have been taken and the discussion has occurred. In most cases, a photo exhibition is held where these pictures and accompanying narratives are displayed; and in other cases, important stakeholders such as policy makers, community organizers, or health care professionals are mobilized to action based on the powerful effect of the visual images (Carlson, Engebretson, & Chamberlain, 2006;Schwartz et al, 2007;Strack et al, 2004;Wang, 1999). Institutional Review Board approval for the conduct of the current study was received.…”

The goal of this research was to understand the barriers and challenges that African American cancer survivors experience after being diagnosed with cancer. The authors provided 20 cancer survivors and caregivers with cameras to take pictures of their needs right after they were diagnosed with cancer. Most importantly, a major theme that arose from the participants' responses was the lack of culturally-specific support services located within their neighborhoods. Other needs included lack of social support, a lack of resources related to appearance, a lack of resources for continued care, and especially a lack of support services for children of survivors.

“…It does not require participants to be able to read or write, speak the research's dominant language, or be fully literate in any language. Examples of Photovoice application are the research on social health issues of women in rural communities of China (Wang et al, 1996), research on indigenous populations in Canada (Castleden et al, 2008), effects of immigration in the lives of Latino adolescents (Streng et al, 2004), or investigation on improving family planning services for immigrant Hispanics (Schwartz et al, 2007).…”

Exploring fundamental causes of safety challenges faced by Hispanic construction workers in the US using photovoice

a b s t r a c tThe US construction industry has long been responsible for a high injury and fatality rate. Within this dangerous industry, Hispanic workers are 45% more likely to be injured or killed than their non-Hispanic counterparts. Previous researchers have examined reasons for these disproportionate injury rates but past literature is spurious, fragmented, and incomplete. To address these limitations an in-depth study was launched to explore the perceived challenges that impact the safety of Hispanic construction workers. The primary data collection method was Photovoice, a photograph-based interview process that allows each participant to be the generator of their own data. The results of Photovoice interviews with 17 Hispanic workers in Colorado indicate that, compared with non-Hispanic workers, Hispanic workers perceive that they are: (1) susceptible to an internal pressure to complete work quickly and neglect safety based on their experiences in their home country; (2) assigned more dangerous tasks because of racism and discrimination; (3) more willing to accept dangerous work for fear of losing their jobs and ability to support extended family; (4) less likely to provide feedback to their supervisors and co-workers for fear of negative personal reactions; (5) more likely to be distracted by family issues while at work because of their strong and broad family ties; (6) more likely to ignore criticism because of machismo; (7) more likely to underreport injuries for fear of losing their jobs; and (8) less likely to ask for safety assistance when it is needed because of pride.

“…Photovoice draws from Paulo Freire's approach to education for critical consciousness (Freire, 1973), positing that critical reflection leads to discovery and action to address social inequalities. The Photovoice methodology has been successfully used with different marginalized immigrant and youth populations for the conduct of CBPR (Garcia, et al, 2013;Greene, Burke, & McKenna, 2013;Morales-Campos, Parra-Medina, & Esparza, 2015;Rhodes, et al, 2009;Schwartz, Sable, Dannerbeck, & Campbell, 2007;Stevens, 2010;Strack, et al, 2004;Streng, et al, 2004;Vaughn, L.M., RojasGuyler, & Howell, 2008). This methodology is especially useful for engaging immigrant youth because they may be unfamiliar with processes of meaningful community change where their voices count (Greene, et al, 2013), they may experience barriers to expressing their opinions, or they may feel disempowered because of their immigration experiences or status (Streng, et al, 2004).…”

Community engagement in identifying issues of collective concern to address health disparities is an approach that is central to conducting communitybased participatory research. It is particularly important for youth to be engaged in dialogue around issues that affect their lives. Participation of this nature is understood, within a Positive Youth Development (PYD) approach, to be an element of primary prevention vis a vis health risks. Photovoice has been an increasingly used methodology to enable youth to identify and address issues relevant to their daily experiences. We implemented a six-week Photovoice project guided by a PYD approach with Latino immigrant youth (n=12) from Langley Park, MD. This article describes the experiences of facilitators in implementing the program, testing a new curriculum, and also presents results related to changes in PYD assets among participants. We also offer recommendations for future Photovoice programs with similar populations and aims.
