PhotoVoice

Given social contact as an active ingredient of evidence-based stigma reduction approaches, our team has adapted PhotoVoice for use among a variety of low- and middle-income country settings. PhotoVoice is a participatory research method in which people with lived experience of mental illness develop and present photo-based narratives of their recovery. When implemented among health settings, the method intends to reduce the prejudice and discrimination that limit access to effective mental health care.
