This infographic offers a step-by-step guide to creating a digital exhibition using WhatsApp. It outlines how to set up communities and groups, upload images and captions, and share announcements — all within the app’s familiar interface. Designed to support gender transformation and human rights, the resource highlights how everyday tools can be used to organize and share photovoice exhibitions in accessible, participatory ways.
This living framework reflects our collective commitments, values, and practices co-created through intergenerational dialogue and community-engaged research. It outlines how we work alongside youth to reimagine gender transformation, social change, and participatory practice across the TRANSFORM partnership.
The stories in Mirrored Lives of Change were developed at a weekend writing workshop held in 2023 in Gqeberha (previously, Port Elizabeth) in South Africa. We asked the group of young women teachers (now ten years older than when we first met them in 2013) to read and reflect on the story each of them had written in 2013. They then had to reflect on their current selves and identify pivotal moments that changed how they saw themselves as young women and teachers and how they lived their lives in their school and community. Each pivotal moment was then to be developed into a little story, concluding with the kind of African woman they wanted to be.
