Overview:<\/strong><\/h3>\r\nThe PhotoVoice project launched in Fall 2021 was led by Centennial College\u2019s Centre for Accessible Learning and Counselling Services (CALCS) and involved 10 students across a variety of academic programs. Partnered with Centennial\u2019s Student Life Engagement and Development department (SLED) and their pre-existing mentorship program, the PhotoVoice project was pitched to their student mentors and mentees. From this mentorship program, 3 mentors and 3 mentees had registered in addition to 4 CALCS student interns. Observed by the facilitator, most students were interested in joining the project due to its unique approach to photography, leadership opportunity and the chance to showcase their work to their community. Moreover, as the project was based entirely online it had provided both an advantage to recruiting students and to making this project accessible to those who were abroad, as 4 out of our 10 students were international students with 2 being in their home countries of India and Colombia. Within the project students engaged in two workshops which allowed them to gain new insights, reflect and practice storytelling as they explored the prompt \u201cI thrive when\u2026\u201d. Moreover, students had the opportunity to not only take photos and craft their narrative but also learn about their peers' journey and their insights gained through this experiential learning opportunity. As students came from different cultural backgrounds, life experiences and education focus, discussions were rich and commonalities were found throughout the online discussions within the workshops. Although a small group, photos and narratives were rich with detail and provided a lens to the realities of students' lives and what thriving means to them.\r\n
