Visual Storyboards in Action: A Methodological Journey in Assam’s Bodoland

Year: 2026

Type: book

Abstract: This chapter presents a collaborative project with Bodo women and youth in Assam’s Bodoland, conducted with Action Northeast Trust (ANT). It documents weaving, livelihoods, education, and empowerment through photography, video, and interviews. Moving beyond NGO-driven impact narratives, it positions visual ethnography as both research and solidarity practice. Recognising Bodo women as co-creators, the chapter highlights weaving as intertwined with cultural preservation, economic autonomy, and collective transformation, contributing to feminist and participatory methodologies.
