Abstract

Photojournalism serves as a powerful medium in shaping societal perceptions, particularly in the representation of marginalized communities. This study critically examines how sex workers are visually portrayed in photojournalism, employing a semiotic analysis grounded in the frameworks of Ferdinand de Saussure, Charles Sanders Peirce, and Roland Barthes. The research investigates the role of denotation and connotation in constructing meaning, while foregrounding the mechanisms of dehumanization. Dehumanization is explored through both overt visual techniques and more subtle compositional choices that strip subjects of agency and individuality. Utilizing qualitative content analysis, the study analyzes a selection of photojournalistic images, focusing on signs, codes, and symbolic structures embedded within the visuals. Findings indicate a prevalent reliance on visual tropes that perpetuate stereotypes and reinforce social hierarchies. These visual strategies not only marginalize sex workers but also align with broader patterns of social exclusion and discrimination. The study concludes that ethical considerations in visual storytelling remain critically underexplored, especially in the context of vulnerable populations. Addressing these issues requires a reevaluation of journalistic practices and the incorporation of humanizing visual narratives that affirm dignity and complexity. This research contributes to media studies by bridging semiotic theory with critical discourse on visual ethics and human rights

Abstract

This study investigates the communicative practices of youth volunteers involved in Surabaya’s Kelurahan Bersinar anti-drug initiative, highlighting the role of grassroots messaging in shaping public health discourse. Grounded in framing theory, narrative theory, and social capital theory, the research explores how volunteers construct persuasive anti-drug messages through culturally rooted storytelling, emotional framing, and symbolic communication. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were gathered through interviews, focus groups, observations, and campaign materials with 18 youth volunteers. The findings reveal that volunteers effectively used personal experiences and local narratives to foster trust and collective identity, transforming individual challenges into shared stories of hope and resistance. Emotional strategies, such as gain-framed and fear-based appeals, were deliberately crafted to trigger empathy and promote behavioral change. Volunteers also capitalized on their deep integration within community networks to enhance message credibility and reach, cultivating both bonding and bridging social capital. The study challenges top-down approaches in health campaigns, illustrating the power of peer-led, culturally resonant communication. It contributes a layered communication model for grassroots health advocacy and underscores the transformative impact of narrative-driven volunteer engagement. The study recommends integrating cultural framing in training programs and exploring digital channels to scale grassroots messaging in future research.
