"The Road is Our Hospital": A Community-Led Photovoice Study on Infrastructural Barriers to Health along the Ebolowa-Akom II Corridor, Cameroon

Twelve (12) community participants from eight villages along the corridor (Anyuzok, Mefo, Mvieng, Mfenda, Nkoloveng, Embevok, Biton, Aloum II) were recruited as co-researchers. Participants curated pre-existing photographs from their personal collections and mobile phones in response to two prompts: "What makes it difficult to get to a doctor?" and "What does 'being healthy' mean in your community?" The resulting photographs were analyzed during facilitated focus group discussions using the SHOWeD method. Transcriptions were analyzed using thematic analysis.

Abstract

Twelve (12) community participants from eight villages along the corridor (Anyuzok, Mefo, Mvieng, Mfenda, Nkoloveng, Embevok, Biton, Aloum II) were recruited as co-researchers. Participants curated pre-existing photographs from their personal collections and mobile phones in response to two prompts: "What makes it difficult to get to a doctor?" and "What does 'being healthy' mean in your community?" The resulting photographs were analyzed during facilitated focus group discussions using the SHOWeD method. Transcriptions were analyzed using thematic analysis.
