Abstract'In the frame: photovoice and mothers with learning difficulties'
This paper presents the results of a photovoice project involving
mothers with learning difficulties. Photovoice is a technique
that challenges the established politics of representation by
putting people in charge of how they document their own lives.
The authors describe how the project was carried out and the
problems they encountered. Analysis of the content of the mothers'
photo albums in the context of their own personal stories throws
light on both their individual lives and their collective experience.
The results challenge discriminatory views of the women as different
mums.
