Résumé	Multiple case-based phenomenology combines the bounded, comparative logic of multiple case study design with the lived-experience focus of phenomenological inquiry. The researcher selects two or more distinct cases — individuals, sites, or groups — who share the same target phenomenon, conducts phenomenological analysis within each case, and then synthesises findings across cases to identify both shared essential structures and case-specific variations. The result is richer and more transferable than a single-case phenomenological study while remaining grounded in the depth that phenomenology demands.	Comparative phenomenology applies phenomenological inquiry to two or more distinct groups, cultures, or contexts, explicitly contrasting how each group lives through and makes meaning of a shared phenomenon. Rather than describing a single unified essence, it reveals both common structures and meaningful differences in lived experience across comparison units. The approach is grounded in Husserlian and hermeneutic phenomenology but extends the standard single-group design into a structured cross-group analysis.
