Centring Child, Early and Forced Marriage, and Unions in Context
Child, Early and Forced Marriage, and Unions (CEFMU) can perhaps most usefully be thought of as an umbrella term for a variety of practices related to formal and/or informal unions in which at least one member of the couple is under the age of 18. CEFMU is recognised widely as a violation of human rights and a significant public health issue and has long been a focus of international development
No Vows for Cows” in Rural South Africa
Drawing on data generated during my doctoral study that involved using participatory visual methodology to work with 15 girls in a rural community in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, I describe and discuss a cellphilm produced by them that focuses on early and forced marriage in their community. I demonstrate how such methodology can enable girls and young women to communicate effectively their complex and nuanced understandings of such marriage and …
Ethical Practice in Participatory Visual Research with Girls
Ethical Practice in Participatory Visual Research With Girls
Girls and young women, particularly those from rural and indigenous communities around the world, face some of the most adverse social issues in the world despite the existence of protective laws and international treaties. Ethical Practice in Participatory Visual Research with Girls explores the potential of participatory visual method (PVM) for girls and young women in these communities, presenting and critiquing the everyday ethical dilemmas v…
Resilience and Resistance
Negotiating Girl-led Advocacy
Increasingly, researchers and policymakers recognize the ability of girls to effect social change in their daily lives. Scholars working across diverse settings also acknowledge the key influence of individual, family, and societal structures on such activism. Drawing on our work with girls in a participatory visual research project in a rural community in South Africa, we consider examples of partnership and collaboration between the adult resea…
Technologies of Nonviolence
Rapid developments in digital technologies have sparked revolutionary shifts in participatory research. Emerging tools such as digital stories and cellphilms offer participants opportunities to engage actively in research and to produce media about their everyday lives. Yet, while these may enable such engagement, researchers need to ensure that the very tools meant as technologies of nonviolence are not in and of themselves violent. This article…
Using participatory visual research to explore resilience with girls and young women in rural South Africa
Sexual violence is deeply embedded in historical and structural inequalities and is driven by unequal gender power relations. These unequal power relations give rise to gendered norms and practices that inform the social ecologies in which women and girls negotiate their lives. South Africa has one of the highest rates of sexual assault in the world. Research suggests that girls and women from resource-poor rural communities are particularly susc…
South African Indian English
This paper focuses on attitudes towards South African Indian English (SAIE), an L1 variety of English spoken in South Africa. The attitudes of the participants are considered against the backdrop of the socio-political history of this variety and its speakers, and in contrast to their attitudes to what they perceive as 'good' English. While the research methodology is primarily based on lengthy, semi-structured interviews with twenty young South …
Rural women, HIV and human rights abuses In South Africa
A theme that reflects rural women's experiences is appropriately captured in an Amnesty International (Al) report titled “I am at the lowest end of all”: Rural women living with HIV face human rights abuses in South Africa (2008). The study reported in the publication, undertaken in two provinces, namely Mpumalanga and KwaZulu-Natal, examines patterns of human rights abuses of women who are exposed to the risk of or are already living with HIV in…
