Photovoice as an arts-based participatory research approach

SJT Initiative’s Dr. Nasim Haque, presented at the Lillian Wright Maternal-Child Institute along with four other speakers from York and McMaster University, all of whom have expertise in the area of maternal child health research. Nasim’s presentation, “Photovoice as an arts based participatory research approach,” drew examples from her work using participatory action research methods in the SJT Initiative. The presentation was attended by students from different disciplines, researchers, community members and health and social services professionals.

Acknowledgement of Traditional Land

We wish to acknowledge this land on which the Wellesley Institute operates. For thousands of years, it has been the traditional land of the Huron-Wendat, the Seneca, and the Mississaugas of the Credit. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
