This handout is based upon the content from the 9-module course, given for DeSIRA-LIFT participants during the months of April, May and June.

Recordings of this course can be found at the Community of Practices website: www.desiraliftcommunity.org.

This handout provides a general overview of why Participatory Video, followed by an explanation of the PV exercises discussed during the course. It ends with guidelines on how to ensure your PV workshop is ethical and inclusive, including informed consent, followed by a list of additional resources and references.

All exercises in this handbook are inspired by the Insights into Participatory Video: A Handbook for the Field, published by InsightShare and the Participatory Video Facilitators Manual published by the CGIAR Research Program for the Humid Tropics.
