תקציר	An interpretive single case study is a qualitative research design that examines one bounded instance — a person, organisation, event, programme, or community — in depth, with the explicit goal of understanding what that case means to the people within it. Drawing on Stake's notion of the intrinsic case and an interpretivist epistemological stance, the approach treats meaning as socially constructed and context-dependent, making rich, contextual understanding its primary output.	Phenomenology is a qualitative research approach that investigates how participants live through and make sense of a specific experience. Rooted in the philosophy of Edmund Husserl and extended by Martin Heidegger, it aims to reveal the essential structures of lived experience rather than to measure or predict outcomes. The two most widely applied variants are Husserl's transcendental phenomenology, which seeks universal essences, and Heidegger's hermeneutic phenomenology, which emphasises interpretation within context.
