In this chapter, I reflect on what it means to explore the meaning of youth citizenship in collaboration with young men and women living in Cape TOwn, South Africa, and Luanda, Angola.

It offers the perspective of a scholar interested in youth political subjectivities in the making rather than that of an activist. To explore the porosity of this border, the present chapter addresses the following questions: how does making films together help me, as a researcher, better to understand the multifaceted experience of social and political engagement for young people in two Southern African cities? Under what conditions is it possible for those who take part in this kind of collaborative research to take ownership of the process? How can wemeasure the degree of intersubjectivity created and the broader effects of our collaboration on the enactment of activism in different contexts?< Leer menos
