Abstract
ABSTRACT In the Home Stay Exhibitions young Rwandans are mentored to produce photo stories which they exhibit in their homes, opening the doors to neighbours and friends. Using photography to make new conversations possible, the initiative contributes to social healing in post-genocide Rwanda. This article provides an empirical case study of the Home Stay Exhibitions as a form of localised peace photography. It contributes to arts and peacebuilding and visual peace research by demonstrating how photography is harnessed by local actors to break down entrenched distances and to carve space for inclusive dialogue around hidden areas of peacebuilding including gender, justice and community.
