Understanding the experiences of community health workers (CHWs) is essential in order to gauge the support and resources they require to effectively provide care to the populations they serve. The use of participatory visual methods (PVMs) to develop this understanding has been relatively underexplored. This study captures the challenges faced by CHWs through the use of a PVM, photovoice. The study looks at 8 CHWs over 6 weeks through 62 relevant photographs along with individual interviews and group discussions.
