Резюме	Participatory qualitative-priority mixed design combines a participatory research worldview with a qualitative-dominant mixed methods structure. The qualitative strand carries the primary explanatory weight — capturing lived experience, meaning, and community voice — while a smaller quantitative strand supplements and contextualises the findings. Community members or stakeholders are active co-researchers throughout, shaping questions, data collection, analysis, and action planning.	Participatory Action Research (PAR) is a qualitative, community-centred methodology in which researchers and community members collaborate as co-investigators to identify a shared problem, take deliberate action, observe outcomes, and reflect critically on results — cycling iteratively until meaningful change is achieved. Unlike conventional research that studies people from the outside, PAR treats participants as active agents who co-own the research process, the knowledge produced, and the practical interventions that follow.	Phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that investigates how participants live through and make sense of a specific experience. Rooted in the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and extended by Martin Heidegger, it aims to reveal the essential structures of lived experience rather than to measure or predict outcomes. The two most widely applied variants are Husserl's transcendental phenomenology, which seeks universal essences, and Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology, which emphasises interpretation within context.
