Synopsis
A new book exploring forms of cultural participation and evaluation, published by The Public with a foreword by Professor Nick Stanley.
This insightful book is based on a five-year action research project, which stimulated opportunities for young people to make images, using photography and new media, in informal contexts such as Birmingham’s Bull Ring markets. Through this project a new ‘process generated’ approach to evaluating participatory arts activities evolved which is now presented in the book. This model of evaluation is based on the facilitation of a dialogic evaluative process, in which participants map their own learning, and identify the significance of their work for themselves.
The book will be of particular interest to professionals working directly with young people in participatory arts projects as well as policy makers, academics and others involved in capturing the value of such work.

From the Inside Flap
Dr Roz Hall is based at The Public in Sandwell. Her current post has developed through the previous work, as a research fellow at The University of Central England in Birmingham and The Public. The action research informed her PhD thesis "Practising Inclusivity with New Media: Young People, Digital technology and Democratic Cultural Participation". Prior to working in the West Midlands, Roz initiated community project work, and programmed digital and chemical photography courses, at Watershed Media Centre. Previous work at Barton Hill Settlement Community Darkroom in Bristol, and with boys excluded from mainstream education, informed her consequent focus and approach. Dr Roz Hall previously studied photography at the Polytechnic of Central London.
