Overview
This course offers a theoretical and practical program in which we explore how the making of documentaries can enrich ethnographic research within a variety of social science disciplines. The genre of ethnographic filmmaking is central to the course, but additionally we will discuss the use of photography, arts-based engagement ethnography, and participatory action research.
