Engagement et co-autorat. Enjeux d’une recherche filmée sur l’accès aux soins.

Introduction: The Probashi project has produced four short autobiographical films on the life experiences in France of Bangladeshi nationals living in the Île-de-France region and the barriers they face to healthcare access.

Purpose of research: The development of this creative research project raises questions about issues of involvement and how participants are generated, in the context of methodological reflections on participatory research.

Results: The material and subjective availability of the participants determines involvement and production in the different stages of the filmed research, from data collection to the reporting of the results.

Conclusions: The conditions that ensure the involvement of participants, in particular those that are socially vulnerable, must be factored into the participatory research arrangements themselves.
