Despite significant scholarship on the photography of war, violence, and suffering, very little research has explored what a photography of peace might consist of. This is a conspicuous omission in our accelerated visual age, where images are persistent forces that shape memory, perceptions, history, and politics as much as they depict them. A new agenda for visual peace research highlights an urgent need to more systematically understand the political significance and effect of images on post-conflict peacebuilding in diverse cultural settings.<\/span><\/p>\n

Imaging Peace<\/a> is a Leverhulme Fellowship project led by Dr Tiffany Fairey<\/a> in the Department of War Studies at King\u2019s College London. The project is investigating the critical and neglected relationship between photography and peacebuilding by focusing on localised photographic initiatives in countries with recent and ongoing experiences of conflict, violence, and war. In particular, it is examining how conflict-affected communities use photography to foster peace and how localised, participatory, and community-engaged photographic initiatives operate as forms of peace photography or strategic visual peacebuilding. Undertaking the first multi-country study of participatory peace photography, Fairey has collaborated with partners in diverse peace and conflict settings, including in Colombia, Rwanda, Northern Ireland, and Bosnia & Herzegovina, to build empirical evidence and co-produce knowledge on participatory visual peace methods, ethics, and impacts.<\/p>\n
