Chapter One: Introduction

1.1 Background of the Study

Community bonding is crucial for social cohesion and collective development in local communities. In Karu Local Government Area, Nasarawa State, the importance of strengthening ties within the community is essential for fostering cooperation, shared responsibility, and mutual support. Photography, as a means of documenting events, celebrations, and shared experiences, has the potential to enhance community bonding by visually capturing moments of unity, collective action, and cultural exchange. By offering a visual record of community events, photography creates a sense of shared history and belonging. This study examines the influence of photography on community bonding in Karu, investigating how visual storytelling contributes to reinforcing relationships, encouraging community participation, and creating a unified identity.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

Despite the importance of community bonding in Karu, there is limited research on how photography can be used as a tool for enhancing social cohesion. While many communities engage in social activities and collective events, there is a lack of documentation and visual representation of these moments. Photography, when used effectively, can capture the essence of these activities and help strengthen relationships by creating visual memories that bring people together. However, the potential of photography to influence community bonding in Karu has not been adequately explored. This study addresses this gap by investigating how photography can contribute to fostering stronger community ties in the area.
