Abstract
This paper focuses on the use of images to promote reflection and analysis of inclusive practices. The image‐based work was set in the context of a two‐year action research study, which took place in Tanzania and Zambia, 2001–2003, in collaboration with researchers from the Enabling Education Network (EENET), based at the University of Manchester's School of Education. This study, entitled, ‘Understanding Community Initiatives to Improve Access to Education’ involved the use of a wide range of processes to promote reflection, analysis and documentation, including a range of different types of images. We reflect here on the learning, which took place among the researchers in all three countries in using images as a basis for reflection on inclusive education.
