    Data

    Recordings were made of the main discussions of photographs taken by SHG members in one urban and one rural Photovoice workshop. Recordings were transcribed in Telugu. A total of 81 photographs and captions were produced for the two community photo exhibitions. The Telugu transcriptions together with the Telugu captioned photographs were translated into English to share analysis throughout the research team.

    Thematic analysis

    The aim of thematic analysis is to identify patterns/themes to understand a situation under study . Thematic analysis is not necessarily attached to any particular theory and this allowed the diverse inter-disciplinary research team an accessible and flexible research tool . A codebook or hybrid thematic analysis approach was taken . This involved using an initial skeleton a priori coding template and following principles of reflexive qualitative research to identify and interpret...
