সারসংক্ষেপ	Participatory transformative mixed methods is a research design that embeds both a participatory action framework and a transformative paradigm within mixed methods inquiry. Both quantitative and qualitative data are collected in active collaboration with marginalized or underserved communities, with the explicit aim of producing findings that challenge inequity, empower participants, and drive social change. Donna Mertens' transformative paradigm and the mixed methods tradition of Creswell and Plano Clark jointly inform the approach.	The multiphase mixed methods design is a sustained research program in which quantitative and qualitative strands are combined across three or more sequential phases — or across multiple related projects — to address a central program objective. Each phase builds on the prior phase's findings, making the design well-suited to long-term evaluation, intervention development, and large-scale program assessment where a single data-collection cycle cannot fully address the complexity of the research problem.
