Photovoice for Health Equity Visual Art Exhibition

The Dr. John Archer Library & Archives is pleased to host an equity-focused visual art project, titled Photovoice for Health Equity, conducted by the the University of Regina Faculty of Nursing.  In 2024, Dr. Shauna Davies, Dr. Coatlicue Sierra Rose, and Mr. Claudio Bezerra Azevedo Filho, of the Roots + Wires Research Collective, facilitated a Photovoice project focusing on the health and wellness needs of marginalized communities in Saskatchewan and how these needs may differ from the mainstream. 

This project brought together a diverse group of 14 University of Regina undergraduate and graduate students who were asked to take photos from their daily lives speaking to the concerns of their respective Indigenous, Black, newcomer, 2S/LGBTQIA, and low socioeconomic status communities. This exhibition is a collection of the photos the students nominated as most representative of their collective concerns.  Photovoice projects aim to enact social change by raising awareness and impacting policy solutions to complex social problems.
