Σύνοψη	Visual Elicitation Discourse Analysis (VEDA) is a qualitative method that uses photographs or other images as interview stimuli to generate participant talk, which is then subjected to systematic discourse analysis. By anchoring conversation in concrete visual materials, VEDA accesses meanings, ideologies, and subject positions that purely verbal questioning often fails to surface. The approach combines the depth of elicitation interviewing with the critical, language-focused rigour of discourse analysis.	Thematic Analysis (TA) is a qualitative research methodology for identifying, analyzing, and reporting patterns (themes) in qualitative data. Developed systematically by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke (2006), TA is flexible and accessible, applicable across diverse theoretical frameworks and data types, making it one of the most widely used qualitative methods in psychology, health research, and social sciences.
