By contrast she has described activism as public and explicit arguing that a dichotomy or separation often exists between the two. The Plastic Ceiling Project aims to link these two spaces by using social media to offer an opportunity for women to share their everyday (private) lived experiences of balancing responsibilities for mothering, work and study and thus to (publicly) highlight participants’ collective perceived inequalities and provide a platform for activism. This initial small- scale pilot study explores the methods of photo-elicitation and blogging in order to create such a platform, allowing participants to highlight and discuss commonalities within their experiences. Rather than aiming to “solve” problems for participants, this methodology aims to empower individuals by allowing them to create a shared reality together, co- create knowledge and to give them a vehicle to discuss and resolve difficulties and challenges collectively.
