Description
Summary:Arts-based research is an emergent yet developing methodology in application for health research over the last few decades. Visual arts in research and practice particularly among women in marginalized settings facilitate opportunities to address intricate issues around sexual and reproductive health (SRH), some of which extend to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) risk perceptions and acceptability and uptake of new services and health options. This paper draws on visual arts-based methods using a specific technique of journey mapping adopted in two studies and aims to demonstrate how art-based methods contribute to socio-behavioural research.
