Field Work

PhotoVoice ran a two week intensive training course for project facilitators in September 2005. Recruitment for volunteers to run PhotoVoice projects will usually originate from this pool of people who have been specifically trained in PhotoVoice methodology. There may be other opportunities to take part in this course, so please do check our website in the future for further information on how to take part.

A good way to stay in touch and show your support for PhotoVoice is to become a friend - in return for a donation you will receive regular updates and reports, and be first to about all the new projects we have planned.
