3 Credits

Partnering with a community-based organization working with children and young people, students in this course will collaborate with program participants on projects that will communicate ideas and explore subjects of personal, social and political significance. Students will learn to integrate the knowledge, skills and values of their major to inform projects conceived and developed in concert with young people. Pratt students, supervised by faculty, will support children and young people in the conceptualization and realization of photography projects over the course of the semester. The course will investigate the key aspects of participatory photography including ethics, facilitation and collaborative frameworks.
