Résumé	Interpretive narrative inquiry is a qualitative approach that treats human stories as the primary site of meaning-making and knowledge production. Drawing on Connelly and Clandinin's foundational framework and grounded in hermeneutic philosophy, it uses in-depth narrative interviews, field texts, and relational engagement to understand how individuals construct identity, experience, and sense of the world through the stories they tell and live.	Interpretive life history research is a qualitative design in which the researcher and participant collaboratively construct a detailed account of the participant's entire life course — or a significant portion of it — and then interpret that account to understand how identity, context, and meaning-making unfold over time. Grounded in an interpretive epistemology, it treats the narrator's life story not as a neutral record of facts but as a meaning-laden construction shaped by culture, social position, and lived experience.
