Discussing Development Through Photographs - PhotoVoice - Ethical photography for social change | PhotoVoice

The photographer Barbara Luckhurst writes for PhotoVoice on her participatory photography project with geography students in Tanzania. The students document the development of their town after a new road links local people to new businesses.  A hundred and fifty miles of dirt road provided the only access to the town of Sumbawanga in the fertile agricultural region of west Tanzania. Transport, including the bus to the nearest large town of Mbeya, was unreliable in the rainy season. This meant that the town was remote for people, business and services. I first visited the area in 2011 with PiXL International, a small NGO that works with secondary school head teachers to improve student attainment. Our Tanzanian colleagues talked to us about a new project for an improved road that would link Sumbawanga with the main road to Mbeya and Dar es Salaam. Returning each year as the road works progressed, it has been fascinating to discuss with teachers and local education staff their hopes and predictions for development in their town and region.

‘Through the people’s lens’ – stories of development progress told through photography - PhotoVoice - Ethical photography for social change | PhotoVoice

PhotoVoice has teamed up with UK think-tank the Overseas Development Institute (ODI) for an exhibition at the Royal Geographical Society, London, which will exhibit photos and digital stories by community members in China, Ethiopia, Ghana, Nepal, Peru and Tunisia to portray the impact of development as they see and experience it. Crucially, the images aim to give those at the grassroots of development an active voice in telling their own stories of what’s working and why. The free exhibition will take place at the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) from 16 to 26 February between 10am and 5pm on weekdays and 10am and 4pm on Saturday. On Thursday 26 February, we will be hosting a special event at the Royal Geographical Society. The event includes a keynote address by Binyavanga Wainaina, acclaimed author and one of TIME magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world, and author of ‘One Day I Will Write About This Place’ and founding editor of Kwani, a literary network promoting and publishing contemporary African writing. Joining Mr Wainaina will be Nick Danziger, PhotoVoice Patron and winner of the World Press Photo award; and a panel including Mariéme Jamme, a social entrepreneur ranked in Forbes top...
