Photovoice can be more than a research method for communities to identify and mitigate social oppressions. Photovoice has the potential for emancipatory outcomes and the transformation of power relations. This article serves as a primer for beginning researchers who are new to the emancipatory power of the photovoice method or for advanced researchers who would like to re-imagine their current use of the photovoice method to an emancipatory approach that elevates and empowers. Our purpose is to provide a framework for deciding structures, processes, and outcomes of emancipatory photovoice. We specifically prescribe steps with respect to power relations among partners, design prompts or heuristics, and the anticipated and unanticipated outcomes. We base our perspectives on over a decade of photovoice research experiences. Emancipatory photovoice research, if implemented thoughtfully, can facilitate power sharing, collective learning, healing, and growth.
摄影见证不仅可以作为一种社区识别和减轻社会压迫的研究方法。摄影见证还有可能带来解放性的结果和权力关系的转变。本文是为刚开始接触摄影见证方法的解放力量的新手研究人员,或者为那些想要将当前使用摄影见证方法重新想象为提升和赋权的解放方法的高级研究人员而准备的入门指南。我们的目的是为决定解放性摄影见证的结构、过程和结果提供一个框架。我们特别规定了合作伙伴之间权力关系、设计提示或启发式、预期和意外结果的步骤。我们的观点基于十多年的摄影见证研究经验。如果深思熟虑地实施解放性摄影见证研究,可以促进权力共享、集体学习、疗愈和成长。
