This five-day workshop explores participatory visual methods that help decenter the researcher in social science research, amplifying the voices of migrant and refugee youth. Participants will gain hands-on experience with PhotoVoice, a method that empowers participants to document their own lived experiences through photography, and be introduced to video-cued ethnography, which uses video recordings to elicit reflections on cultural practices. By shifting power dynamics in knowledge production, these methods offer more inclusive, participant-driven approaches to qualitative research. Led by experts in the field, this workshop equips researchers with innovative tools while fostering interdisciplinary collaboration.
