Tutubi: A Picture: Worth 1000 Words

In an effort to diminish isolation amongst the elderly, Tutubi facilitated a storytelling through photography workshop with a group of older people in England.

Arts Therapy and Participatory Photography

Tutubi has pioneered a unique way of working, combining Arts Therapy with Participatory Photography. Both approaches aim to be a catalyst for change. In Arts Therapy, this is aimed for primarily on a personal level, while in Participatory Photography this is encouraged at community level.

A group of women living with HIV in Cambodia took part in an Arts Therapy and Participatory Photography project. The workshops focused on creating a therapeutic environment in which the women could explore their feelings through movement, art, drama and photography. The project culminated in a slideshow of their photographs presented to those they wished to invite.
