תקציר	Visual elicitation multiple case study is a qualitative design that embeds photo or image elicitation techniques within a multiple case study framework. Photographs, drawings, or other visual artefacts — produced by participants or the researcher — serve as interview stimuli, enriching within-case depth and enabling rigorous cross-case comparison. The approach leverages the power of images to surface tacit knowledge, making it especially valuable for researching contexts, identities, or experiences that are difficult to articulate in words alone.	Ethnography is a qualitative research tradition in which a researcher immerses themselves in a social group or community over an extended period — typically three to six months or longer — to study its culture, values, and behaviours in their natural setting. Originating in social and cultural anthropology, and consolidated as a rigorous method by Bronisław Malinowski in the early twentieth century, ethnography produces rich, contextualised accounts of how people live, work, and make meaning together.
