The strength of this book lies in the way it combines critical engagement with theory and the practicalities of using Photovoice to draw on the knowledge of marginalised members of communities whose voices have been silenced in many ways. A must read for all social workers.” - Kathomi Gatwiri, Lecturer, School of Arts \u0026amp; Social Sciences, Southern Cross University, Queensland, Australia \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“Michele Jarldorn brings to life Photovoice as an intriguing method for social work research, especially for social workers with a critical standpoint. Photovoice is a qualitative, community-based, participatory action research method and Jarldorn illustrates its value with examples from her own research. At the heart of the discussion of this progressive method, Jarldorn places her deep commitment to thecreative and transformative potential of Photovoice to actively involve participants in knowledge production.” - Liz Beddoe, Associate Professor, School of Counselling, Human Services and Social Work, University of Auckland, New Zealand. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book provides inspiration for social workers to explore the possibilities of using Photovoice to engage with communities.
