ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To explore the use of photovoice as a research methodology to identify and explore community health and disability priorities. METHODS: Published studies (n = 31) that applied photovoice as a research methodology to promote and enhance individual and community change were identified and reviewed. RESULTS: Findings are explored and organized by community concerns and priorities; participant recruitment, training, and camera instruction; identification of photo assignment; photo assignment discussion; data analysis; outcomes; and evaluation of program and policy changes. CONCLUSIONS: Despite the limitations of the studies and/or how they are reported, findings from this review support further application of photovoice to facilitate community change.
