What are the goals of photo voice?

What will be an ideal response?


Photovoice has three major goals as an action research strategy. Photovoice allows participants to define themselves, their families, their work, and anything else that they can capture behind the viewfinder of a camera. These photographs are then discussed with others to allow sharing of the meanings captured in photographs.
1. To empower and enable people to reflect their personal and community concerns.
2. To encourage a dialogue and to transfer knowledge and information about personal and community issues through discussions about photographs among participants.
3. To access the perception of those not in control of various issues and to share this information with those who are in control (policymakers, politicians, healthcare professionals, educators, etc).
