Σύνοψη	Visual elicitation hermeneutic phenomenology is a qualitative design that combines the image-based interview technique of visual elicitation with the interpretive, context-sensitive tradition of hermeneutic phenomenology. Participants produce or select photographs, drawings, or other images related to a lived experience; those images then anchor an in-depth interview in which meaning is co-constructed between researcher and participant. The approach draws on van Manen's hermeneutic phenomenology and Harper's photo-elicitation method to access layers of experiential meaning that words alone often cannot reach.	Interpretive phenomenology is a qualitative research design that investigates the meaning people attribute to their lived experiences by combining phenomenological description with hermeneutic interpretation. Rooted in Heidegger's ontology and systematised for social and human sciences by Max van Manen, it moves beyond description to ask what an experience means within a person's broader lifeworld, cultural context, and situated understanding. The researcher's own interpretive horizon is treated as an analytical resource rather than a bias to eliminate.
