The Purpose for the Research
Examining differences between medical and communal views of health and wellbeing
How this influences obesity intervention for NIHLB/NCI prevention study
23/04/22 3
Importance of the Study
Indigenous populations’ childhood obesity rate are at least 15% higher than all other groups in U.S.A
Communities’ voice is often missing in health research design

Methods Used to Gather Data
Photographs as tangible things are therefore no longer solely depictions of decontextualized places or moments, but can be viewed as touchstones that fuel discussion, generate stories, and bring to bear memories among those whom view them. (p.55, Schneider, 2007).
Photographic representation connects meaning to culture (Hall 1997).

Lessens power differential
Their perspective is heard throughout data generation
