Editor's Notes
- Case in point, you’re thinking : Jennifer Lopez! And your mind is going to the context that it’s familiar with…..Which is this, where in reality……
- Its this…Here I am. And that’s why visuals by themselves are not enough, because quite frankly, you would have probably preferred a presentation from the other Jlo. So being clear about your ask, what you want people to do, what you’re advocating for is an important component in using visual tools.
- So when we talk about Visual Data to Drive Change, you may be asking yourself, “Who’s Driving This Change?”
- And chances are good that you will be more effective mobilizing local community resident expertise that people sitting at the 40th floor of some building making decisions and no one who will be affected will be at the table.
- Now I can appreciate if this makes you feel a little uneasy, like your leaning over the side of the cliff and not sure what awaits you. This is a different way of working than we’re used to and many of us aren’t accustomed to viewing community residents as experts or drivers. Often, we might see them just as passive recipients that need to be educated. I encourage you to take the plunge and with some of these tools, you can follow the lead of the contextual experts and learn quite a few things yourself.
- Is it enough just to take a picture? I’ve seen community photos like this with a caption that has no ask, no advocacy, no action.
- Now some of you may be thinking, Jennifer that all fine and good but we are dealing with very technical issues but I will tell you, we have used photo voice around air quality advocacy with our Air Resources Board. When everyone is talking about numbers, community residents help turn those numbers into people to show what the consequences are to their health and their community. Sometimes distilling a technical issue to this level can be a very powerful catalyst for change.
- Run your cursor over the points and up pops the video or photo with written advocacy pieceThis kind of tool was ideal for a 10 year placed based project where the videos were done in both English and Spanish so that all community resident stakeholders could understand what their neighbors were advocating for.
- You can also view the videos as a story without the map in case you just want to scroll down and find the content that is most interesting to you. In the Community Benefit Department of Kaiser Permanente Woodland Hills which includes the West End of the San Fernando Valley and Ventura County we are using this tool to collect data for our Community Health Needs Assessment which informs our Implementation Strategies for where we will focus our resources over the next few years. This gives us a chance to hear where the traction is on issues of importance to communities in need throughout our service area. We received strategies on education, workforce development, access to healthcare and obesity preventions
- If you want to go more indept, we are also going to adding these links to webinars led by community residents talking about how they’ve used Photo Voice and Video Voice Mapping to transform their neighborhoods.
