    Applying MEV-CAM tools: participatory video 2024
    Also available in:

    The Making Every Voice Count for Adaptive Management (MEV-CAM) toolkit provides process documentation facilitators with instruments for documenting change through participatory video to generate knowledge, monitor impact, and share practices. This toolkit sheds light on how to develop a participatory video process in all its stages: beginning with stakeholder identification, activity planning, capturing of change, and more. The MEV-CAM initiative was launched in 2020 to empower and recognize local and Indigenous communities as true agents of change in the realms of sustainable dryland management, restoration, and South-South cooperation. Putting communities in the driver's seat, MEV-CAM uses participatory tools, such as video, which allows for the most significant impact to be visualized from the process of change itself. The MEV-CAM approach guarantees that stakeholders at different levels are engaged in the impact and processes of change with decision makers; learn not only from partners and facilitators, but also from other community members; and feel inspired to disseminate their knowledge and voice their needs to participate in sharing information. While drylands account for 44 percent of the world’s agricultural land, desertification has rapidly increased due to the consistent use of unsustainable land use practices. MEV-CAM values the knowledge that communities possess in combatting the anthropogenic effects of climate change and guides them in disseminating these skills – nationally, regionally, and globally. This toolkit highlights various case studies in which facilitators applied the participatory video process with Indigenous communities of their project’s targeted landscapes in Southern Africa, Central Asia, and the Middle East. The case studies elaborate on the facilitators’ experiences using the participatory tools, and particularly detail communities’ reactions to participating in the activities.
