Participatory Video: Images that Transform and Empower

Fifteen contributions from White (emeritus, communication, Cornell U.) and other academics and practitioners discuss the ways in which participatory video is creating social change in developing countries. Early chapters focus on the participatory video process in general, while later ones share stories from specific projects. For example, one account describes how growing up around a camcorder affected the sense of self of Columbian children while another assesses the impact of the Arab Women Speak Out project.
