Abstract

This article draws from a study couched within the decolonial paradigm. Herein, we understand decoloniality to be the countering or disruption of power involved in knowledge-creation processes, previously and often unquestioningly wrought with colonial ideologies (Western, Eurocentric, and often paternalistic). To this end, we reflect on our approach to disrupting coloniality vis-a-vis power asymmetries between researcher and participants through the employed methodological strategy. Specifically, we reflect on methods of drawing elicitation, photovoice, and incorporation of ‘decolonial’ considerations in applied ethics. We therefore posit the approach to be a means for facilitating a dialogical exchange, that allows for both centring participants’ voice in the research, as well as incorporating participants as actual co-creators of outcome knowledge.
