THE PHOTOVOICE PROJECT
The Ribbon Rouge Foundation’s Photovoice Project [about lived experiences of African, Caribbean, Black Women living with HIV and AIDS in Alberta Strategies, Strengths, Barriers, and Facilitators] focused on gathering stories in Edmonton between September 2019 and April 2020.
We were trying to:
- Understand experiences of women accessing various health, social and other support services while living with HIV
- Understand how these experiences have affected overall health and wellbeing.
- Contribute to positive and impactful systems level change for women living with HIV in Alberta by sharing Digital Stories that highlight “Wise Practices” or suggest interventions based on these stories.
STAY TUNED FOR THE PHOTOVOICE PROJECT II: COMING SOON.
BLACK HISTORY CREATION PROJECT - BLACK HISTORY ART ARCHIVE / DIGITAL CURRICULUM
The Ribbon Rouge Foundation Art Creation project on Black History is designed to engage pre- (health & social) service providers and staff in learning sessions designed to develop their awareness of radical inclusion through storytelling, conversations, and the arts.
The focus of the creation project aligns with Black History month and will contribute to a living archive of lived experiences of the African, Caribbean, Black (ACB) communities within Colleges and Universities.
Listening sessions run in various classrooms and learning labs throughout February, students and artists co-create art pieces through a sense-making process to retell the what they learned in dialogue. The process ends in a week-long art exhibition that coincides with the international day for the elimination of racism in March.
