  1. PHOTOVOICE Technique for Project Evaluation

  2. What is PhotoVoice? A participatory monitoring and evaluation methodology that: • Gives people a voice over issues affecting their lives • Builds skills and empowers marginalized groups to give them greater influence over policies and programs that affect their lives • Allows participants to communicate to program staff about how they experience the intended and unintended outcomes, both positive and negative, from the program

  3. What Can We Learn from PhotoVoice? • Understanding of changes in women’s and men’s lives from their perspectives • Understanding of social and economic impacts on individuals, participants in producer and self-help groups, and communities • Identification of key domains and areas of focus for evaluation

  4. Formulate a Research or Evaluation Question How What • Personal • Open-ended • Clear and specific • Directly related to the life of the photographer • Results in answers that can be illustrated through photos Who Where ? Why When

  5. PhotoVoice Question What is the most significant change experienced by men and women in the communities of ___________ as a result of the LGI project? Take a picture that illustrates the change.

  6. Steps in the PhotoVoice Process In response to an open-ended question about change: • Learn basic photography • Answer the research question by taking photos • Each photographer meets with a facilitator to select his/her 5 from the best 15 of his/her photos and tells the story behind each photo

  7. Steps in the PhotoVoice Process • The photographers view each others’ best photos and come up with categories to describe them and then group them by category • Once categorized, the group selects a smaller group of photos representing group consensus on the answer to the research question • The photographers prepare an exhibition • Community representatives are invited to view the exhibition

  8. Steps in the PhotoVoice Process • The community groups discuss the photos and select one or two that best respond to the research question. They discuss why they have chosen the photos • At a meeting between community representatives and project staff: • Community representatives present the selected photos and explain why they were chosen. • Staff read their selected MSC stories and then explain why they were chosen. • Staff and community representatives discuss the similarities and differences between the changes identified through the stories and those represented in the photos.
