OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

Photo-walks with Children: A Critical Research Method and Pedagogy
Drawing on a background in teaching, photography, and community practice, this session introduces photo-walking as an evolving visual and participatory research method for working with children. I will share how photography can support explorations of place within local and national discourses.
Building on my MA research in Culture, Diaspora and Ethnicity (2018), which examined how ethnographic photography can elicit dialogue around local cultures within global and historical contexts, I will share the development of photo-walking as pedagogy through five years of photo-walk practice in schools. Developed through my community interest company, Global Routes Project CIC, this approach positions children as co-researchers. The session will present children’s photographs and voices to demonstrate the methodological and pedagogical insights emerging from this visual research.
Within the ERC/UKRI-funded Reparative Futures of Education Project, I am now beginning research that examines the potential of photo-research creation for epistemic and pedagogic redress in education in England. This work will contribute children’s collaboratively developed framings of local places and insights into how visual analyses could support critical visual learning in schools. My research aims to contribute to debates on reparative methodologies and the role of visual inquiry in reimagining educational futures.
