We integrated Photostory process into routine visits undertaken during implementation of Stepping-Stones, an ECD intervention program. A standardized rating system was established to monitor levels of, and change in, community practices. A systematic format to capture, archive and evaluate photographic material was developed. Methodology: The Photostory method was built through a cyclical process to describe and explore early-childhood practices in central-India through photographs and stories. Objective: Paper describes development and adaptation of an integrated photostory approach documenting actions and stimulating positive change in Early Child Development (ECD). Photographs and narratives also engage decision makers, inspiring changes in policy and practice. 6Research and Development & Community Medicine, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Wardha, Indiaīackground: Capturing real-life practices through photographs provides an opportunity to create awareness and focus discussions on relevant issues in community. 5School of Epidemiology in Public Health, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Wardha, India.4Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Wardha, India.3Educational Psychologist, Institute of Educational Development, Aga Khan University, Nairobi, Kenya.2School of Epidemiology in Public Health, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Wardha, India.1School of Epidemiology in Public Health & Community Medicine, Jawaharlal Nehru Medical College, Datta Meghe Institute of Medical Sciences, Wardha, India.Abhay Gaidhane 1, Penny Holding 2, Minal Shah 3, Manoj Patil 4, Shital Telrandhe 4 *, Navnita Jadhav 4, Priti Kogade 4, Sonali Chaudhari 5 and Quazi Syed Zahiruddin 6
