Photovoice is considered to be a method that is used in community based participatory research and to gather photographs and narratives of experiences that can be translated into actionable knowledge. Under Improving SRHR in Dhaka project SERAC-Bangladesh has organized 10 orientations on photovoice till January 2024 with support of Ipas Bangladesh. We have skilled up 2 batches who worked on photovoice case stories on sexual and reproductive health and sexual and gender-based violence. The 1st batch had 13 participants and the 2nd batch had 15 participants in total.
There were 41 case stories that came out from their community and after several periods of analysis 30 stories were finalized to be published and exhibited through media events. The case stories have different aspects of SRH and SGBV including but not limited to family planning, post abortion care (PAC), reproductive coercion, child marriage, sexual exploitation, harassment, abuse violation of rights and many more. The project is technically supported by Ipas Bangladesh and funded by Global Affairs Canada via HealthBridge Foundation of Canada.
