methodology
•power, reflexivity
•involvement, participation,
collaboration, partnerships
•process and outputs
•endpoints and onward prompts
•advocacy and awarenes
• Responsibilities of researchers: contributing to social change
• Broad approach to health: more than poor health, determinants of
health, plural healthcare systems, public health, social justice,
governance, advocacy
• Beyond more established quantitative and qualitative
research approaches: mixed methods, multi-methods
• Accessing “marginalised communities”: what is a community?,
access, safety, legality, ‘voice’
• Residents as experts; researchers as participants: power
• Partnerships and collaboration: university, community and
advocacy groups, government
• Exploring (re)presentation: whose voice?
• Challenging social research: what do we really know?
Social justice and the academy
© Nono, 2010
What is it about “the visual” that is allowing us / forcing us
to have these discussions?
– Are we reinforcing the idea / suggesting that there is
something “special” about “the visual”?
– What is “special” about “the visual”? Anything?
Why are these discussions not taking place in “other”
spaces?
– What should we do to be changing this?
– Within and outside “the academy”
The visual makes “it”* visible.
* I don’t know what “it” is
Research methods?
[what is appropriate v’s popular]
Partnerships; collaboration
Participatory?
(re)presentation?
What constitutes knowledge?
– Whose knowledge?
– How is knowledge
constructed?
ethics
methods
knowledge
production
power
politics of
knowledge
time
funding
precarity
What is data? [process? output?
artefact? engagement?]
• Who owns data?
• Does data have an impact?
Dissemination and sharing
• What is research translation?
• What should be communicated?
• How to communicate?
• Advocacy?
Who benefits?
involvement
Methodological approaches - tools
•Ethnography
•Involved methods
•Photography and film
•Journals
•Body mapping
•Creative writing
•Partnerships
•Social media
•Newsletter
•Publications
•Presentations
•Exhibitions
Ethics
• Who owns the “data”?
• Who can appear in the narratives/photographs/visual material?
• Can we visually document “sensitive” issues?
• Do researchers have an obligation to report illegal or abusive
activities?
• Is conducting research of this nature safe, and for who?
• What are the issues surrounding confidentiality and anonymity?
Public Engagement
dissemination and advocacy
• How and where should “results” be disseminated?
– Ethics and obligations
– Academic v’s civic engagement
• Who sees and uses “final results”? (is it ever final?)
– Exhibitions and space?
– Visitors?
– Ongoing research process?
– Online
– Participatory? © Constance, 2010
Participatory learning
• Researchers learn from participants:
– Names and labels
– Participants are diverse
– Participants learn from each other
• What’s in the image/narrative?
– Developing methodologies to interview the
image/narrative
• What’s not in the image/narrative?
– What pictures don’t exist?
The role of journals and narrative interviews© Constance, 2010
• Visual methodologies are valuable research and advocacy tools.
• Develop teaching methodologies for civil society, urban planners
and health researchers, programmers and policy makers.
• Participatory: enabling communities to engage in urban planning
processes (for example)
• Provide essential contextual information on environments in which
we work.
• (Health) researchers need to be aware of complexities of (urban)
spaces.
Visualising
• Creative methodologies facilitate effective
communication with – and between - research
participants and researchers.
• Transferable and flexible methodology
– Different contexts
– Different communities and groups within the same urban
space
– Participatory urban planning processes
• Comparative studies

  • 9. • Responsibilities of researchers: contributing to social change • Broad approach to health: more than poor health, determinants of health, plural healthcare systems, public health, social justice, governance, advocacy • Beyond more established quantitative and qualitative research approaches: mixed methods, multi-methods • Accessing “marginalised communities”: what is a community?, access, safety, legality, ‘voice’ • Residents as experts; researchers as participants: power • Partnerships and collaboration: university, community and advocacy groups, government • Exploring (re)presentation: whose voice? • Challenging social research: what do we really know? Social justice and the academy © Nono, 2010
  • 10. What is it about “the visual” that is allowing us / forcing us to have these discussions? – Are we reinforcing the idea / suggesting that there is something “special” about “the visual”? – What is “special” about “the visual”? Anything? Why are these discussions not taking place in “other” spaces? – What should we do to be changing this? – Within and outside “the academy” The visual makes “it”* visible. * I don’t know what “it” is

What constitutes knowledge? – Whose knowledge? – How is knowledge constructed? ethics methods knowledge production power politics of knowledge time funding precarity What is data?

  • 13. Ethics • Who owns the “data”? • Who can appear in the narratives/photographs/visual material? • Can we visually document “sensitive” issues? • Do researchers have an obligation to report illegal or abusive activities? • Is conducting research of this nature safe, and for who? • What are the issues surrounding confidentiality and anonymity?
  • 14. Public Engagement dissemination and advocacy • How and where should “results” be disseminated? – Ethics and obligations – Academic v’s civic engagement • Who sees and uses “final results”? (is it ever final?) – Exhibitions and space? – Visitors? – Ongoing research process? – Online – Participatory? © Constance, 2010
  • 15. Participatory learning • Researchers learn from participants: – Names and labels – Participants are diverse – Participants learn from each other • What’s in the image/narrative? – Developing methodologies to interview the image/narrative • What’s not in the image/narrative? – What pictures don’t exist? The role of journals and narrative interviews© Constance, 2010
  • 16. • Visual methodologies are valuable research and advocacy tools. • Develop teaching methodologies for civil society, urban planners and health researchers, programmers and policy makers. • Participatory: enabling communities to engage in urban planning processes (for example) • Provide essential contextual information on environments in which we work. • (Health) researchers need to be aware of complexities of (urban) spaces. Visualising
  • 17. • Creative methodologies facilitate effective communication with – and between - research participants and researchers. • Transferable and flexible methodology – Different contexts – Different communities and groups within the same urban space – Participatory urban planning processes • Comparative studies Visualising

Editor's Notes

  1. All aspects of sex work are criminalised in South Africa Little sex work research has been conducted in South Africa, but literature available Violence: High levels of violence against male, female and transgender sex workers; violence (and fear of) against cross-border migrants Health Care: Limited due to fear of HCW discrimination and disclosing profession - only one sex work-specific health clinic in South Africa; challenges experienced by cross-border migrants HIV risk: FSWs - HIV prevalence between 45% - 69% in 1998
  2. analyse visual methods and their popularity as a topic in itself. This allows us to address questions of epistemology, power, ethics and emancipation, all common but often unarticulated assumptions, in visual methods
