Are you or your colleagues heading out into the field? Are you documenting your work or programme beneficiaries?
Documentation is a key part of monitoring and evaluation, and good photo documentation goes a long way in fundraising and donor relations. It’s important to train staff and programme beneficiaries in visual storytelling and documentation.
Throughout my career, I have trained hundreds of practitioners, field experts, monitoring and evaluation experts and programme beneficiaries in visual storytelling and visual language.
How does it work?
I offer workshops from 90 minutes to several days depending on your needs.
They can be remote or in-person, at any location around the world.
What is visual storytelling?
We as visual storytellers tell stories through images that words cannot. We make use of the visual medium to convey emotions and stories, unambiguously. Show don’t tell. We focus on understanding and using the visual medium, and what kind of vocabulary we need to do this.
Photo Dialogue
Whether it is online or in person, in every training, we take part in a photo dialogue through which we discuss images and their visual impact. Through the dialogue, we learn more about visual language and how to put into words what we see in the images. This is also a useful tool for inter-cultural or inter-religious dialogue.
