LANDEROS-CASILLAS, Martha Ileana. Photography as an Intermediary in an Informal Artistic Education Project that Portrayed the Life of Sahrawi women. Educare [online]. 2016, vol.20, n.2, pp.256-270. ISSN 1409-4258.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15359/ree.20-2.13.

This investigation was carried out in one of the most unwelcoming areas of the Sahara Desert, in the argelian Tindouf Refugee Camps where part of the Sahrawi community lives. A photography workshop was held for the women with the aim of allowing their images show the reality around them and work to reweave the social fabric broken, not voluntarily but under imposition. Recovering the public space, through voices and looks, will let us understand, from the perspective and opinions of the Sahrawi women, their longings and feelings, in order that such visual, verbal and textual narratives generate more successful actions to support reality-aware and solidarity programs. In addition, the international community was sensitized about a reality that is present even if it seems unreal and far away. To understand the discourses of the sahrawi women, gender and subaltern studies were considered, and to visualize their voices and creations we focused on educational research from horizontality offered by the Entre Voces (Between Voices) methodology.

Palabras clave : Refugee camp; photography; woman; Sahrawi; non formal education.
