Abstract
Community photography is being implemented around the world to enable socially disadvantaged communities to represent their everyday lives from the inside. In this post, Alice Baroni describes how community photographers in Rio de Janeiro not only have successfully achieved a portrayal of favelas that often challenges the images presented in the mainstream media, but have also fostered dialogue and enhanced self-esteem amongst their neighbours.
