Participatory Video

Participatory Video (PV) is a collaborative filmmaking process that empowers communities to create their own videos, expressing their stories, ideas, and perspectives. Participants are actively involved in all stages, from planning and filming to editing and screening. This approach fosters creativity, encourages dialogue, and promotes understanding of local issues. By using video as a tool for communication, communities can raise awareness, share experiences, and influence decision-makers. PV emphasizes inclusivity and helps marginalized voices to be heard, making it a valuable method for community engagement and advocacy.
