“Since its launch PhotoVoice has established itself as a pioneer in the sector, winning widespread support with the public and media and sharing its unique project methodologies with groups all over the world. With a tiny income it has accomplished great things, training socially excluded groups in photojournalism skills to give them a voice. Its students have gone on to study at university, found work in the photographic industry and have been commissioned by the BBC”
