Резюме	Participatory Narrative Research (PNR), often operationalized as Participatory Narrative Inquiry (PNI), is a qualitative research design in which community members or stakeholders collect, share, and collectively interpret their own stories to understand complex social phenomena. Unlike researcher-driven narrative approaches, PNR places participants at the center of data collection, analysis, and sense-making, generating actionable insights grounded in lived community experience.	Oral history is a qualitative research method that collects, preserves, and interprets first-person spoken accounts of past events, experiences, and social processes. By recording in-depth interviews with individuals who witnessed or participated in historical events, oral historians document perspectives that written records often exclude. The method bridges historical scholarship and social science, treating the narrator's memory, subjectivity, and voice as primary evidence rather than as limitations to be corrected.
