Watch webinar: Photovoice, Zoom interviews and digital story-telling: A qualitative health trifecta?

In this webinar three qualitative methods were introduced along with specific insights developed through their use in a range of health and illness projects.

The first method, photovoice research, explored the gendered dimensions of mental illness and suicidality offer some pragmatics and profits for using that visual method. The second, the benefits and concessions of qualitative Zoom interviews, were discussed based on recently completed work with men experiencing distressed and disrupted intimate partner relationships. Lastly, participants lived experiences of endometriosis were featured in a discussion exploring the feasibility, acceptability and reach of digital storytelling. To conclude, details for combining these three methods in a recently funded 100% virtual project exploring safe and equitable relationships were shared in thoughtfully considering if their integration might constitute a qualitative health trifecta that value adds both in terms of research processes and products.
