Participatory Video

Participatory Video (PV) is a set of techniques through which a group or community creates its own films to explore issues, voice concerns, communicate with each other, and advocate to outsiders. Rooted in the 1960s Fogo Island process and codified for development practice by Nick and Chris Lunch of InsightShare and by Shirley White, PV treats the camera not as the property of an outside researcher but as a tool placed in the hands of community members, so that the process of making the video — as much as the film itself — builds confidence, analysis, and collective agency.
