Welcome to our publication page!
Throughout the years, we have gathered inspiring stories and what we have learnt from different projects and methodologies and created free resources for you to use.
PEACE PHOTOGRAPHY GUIDE
‘Peace Photography: A Guide’ explores localised, participatory, and community-engaged peace photography methods where people use images and image-making to foster peace, dialogue, and non-violent civil resistance. Drawing on academic research and practice from around the world, it critically discusses the ethics and practicalities of visual peace methods and features 26 peace photography activities. We hope this resource will be useful for community, peace, and visual practitioners and researchers who are interested in exploring how photography can be harnessed to transform conflict, navigate difference, foster healing and agency, build visibility and connection, and spark peace imaginaries.
This guide is a product of Imaging Peace, a Leverhulme Fellowship research project led by Dr. Tiffany Fairey.
‘Peace Photography: A Guide’ is co-authored by Tiffany Fairey and Ingrid Guyon and draws on contributions from peace photography practitioners and projects in 21 countries with diverse experiences of peace and conflict. The images of these projects are featured throughout. You can view these projects here.
We hope this publication will feed the imaginations of peace photography thinkers and doers everywhere.
This guide is available in English, Spanish, and French.
