CoxPhotovoice is a participant-oriented research methodology applied in community-based participatory action research (PAR) (Schell et al., 2009). Wang and Burris (1997) developed Photovoice, grounded in “critical consciousness, feminist theory, and documentary photography,” to assist in recording and reflecting on community strengths and concerns (p. 370). This lays the groundwork for critical communication with policymakers. Among feminist research methodologies, Photovoice stands out for its allegiance to feminist research principles and capacity to invoke community-driven change (Budig et al., 2018). Because of its ability to challenge traditional power imbalances between researchers and participants, it is well-suited to employ in teaching feminist research principles (Wang et al., 2000).
