Zusammenfassung	Visual elicitation case study is a qualitative design that embeds photo or image elicitation within a case study framework. Participants respond to photographs, drawings, or other visual materials during in-depth interviews, generating richer and often unexpected data than verbal questioning alone. The case study structure then situates these image-prompted accounts within a bounded real-world context — an individual, organization, community, or event — enabling a holistic, detailed understanding of the case.	Narrative analysis is a qualitative research method, synthesised canonically by Catherine Kohler Riessman (2008), that examines how individuals storise their lived experiences and construct meaning through the telling. Drawing on life history, biographical, and narrative inquiry traditions, it treats the story itself — not just its content — as the unit of analysis, attending to temporal sequence, plot structure, and the social context in which a narrative is produced.
