In this presentation, Dr. Tamara Plush from University of Victoria shares her findings on how participatory video (PV) practice might sufficiently raise citizen voice when situated in international development contexts. The resulting knowledge and conceptual framework from her PhD aim to help PV practitioners—and those interested in applying community-based media approaches in development and research—navigate complex development environments that hold potential to either enable or diminish the voices of society’s most vulnerable citizens. The discussion focuses on how participatory video practitioners (and participatory media practitioners in general) can expand possibilities for practice to meaningfully support citizen voice in being heard, valued and influential.
