Everyone benefits when everyone belongs.
We help campuses, workplaces, and communities build cultures of abundant belonging where every religious, secular, and spiritual identity is included, connected, seen, and empowered.
Our approach is different.
Too many approaches to interreligious understanding teach you about other people. They file away beliefs, texts, and facts in your head, not your heart.
Our approach is different. We put a camera in your hand and ask you to show us your life — what matters to you, in your own words, on your own terms. The conversation starts with your photos, in your voice. You learn with other participants through their lenses.
This is where belonging begins.
Together with participants from various walks of life, you see how one another's beliefs, practices, and values show up in everyday life. You'll explore what helps people experience belonging, and what gets in the way. This is where belonging begins to take root: when people are included, connected, seen, and empowered to shape change together.
A common vision for the common good.
We help you find your voice. You'll curate your photos and stories into a visual narrative focused on your shared needs, concerns, and hopes. You'll use those insights to engage your campus, workplace, or community around a common vision for the common good.
We wrote the book.
Our methodology is grounded in visual sociology, conflict resolution, and art-based participatory action. We wrote the book on photovoice for interfaith engagement. And we've been doing the work around the world since 2017.
Take the next step toward belonging.
Step One
SEE
See what's possible through a Snapshot Workshop. You'll learn about our process by experiencing it.
Step Two
BRIDGE
Bridge toward belonging through a workshop, project, retreat, team-building experience, or training we design together.
Step Three
INSTIGATE
Instigate change through the photos and stories that emerge from the visual storytelling process.
Flourishing campuses, workplaces, and communities don't manage differences. They develop people. Belonging isn't a program or a policy — it's a culture that changes people from the inside. This is what abundant belonging looks like.
"When it's 'I took this photo and this is what it meant to me'... I feel like you learned a lot more about each other personally.… I could learn all I want about different faiths and what's different about them—I learned that in college. But it wasn't until I actually had faces with personal stories, that's where it really changed me."
— Dawn (USA)
“It definitely helped me see some of the challenges that the Muslim participants mentioned... I think that’s something that I really gained from this project, because it’s just not a lens that I had. I studied diversity, but actually hearing people’s experiences and how enmeshed they are in the structure of the community was really eye-opening.”
— Emily (Canada)
“Interfaith Photovoice is a new way, a new approach to addressing an issue. And I think this is very practical—for me, it's more practical than lots of sessions of theories and lectures. They are informative, but I believe it sinks into the psyche when you see pictures."
— Levi (Nigeria)
