Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Educational campaigns are essential tools for raising awareness, disseminating knowledge, and promoting behavioral change. Photography, as a visual medium, plays a significant role in enhancing the effectiveness of these campaigns by providing compelling imagery that resonates with audiences. In Bida Local Government Area, Niger State, photography is utilized to support campaigns on topics such as health awareness, environmental conservation, and literacy promotion. According to Musa and Bello (2024), visual content increases audience engagement and retention of information, making it a critical component of educational initiatives. Despite its potential, the use of photography in educational campaigns in Bida is limited by challenges such as inadequate training for campaign organizers, lack of access to professional photographers, and insufficient integration of visual media into campaign strategies. This study examines the role of photography in educational campaigns in Bida, focusing on its impact, challenges, and strategies for improvement.
