सारांश	Field-based life history research is a qualitative design that combines sustained ethnographic fieldwork with in-depth biographical interviewing to reconstruct how individuals have experienced and given meaning to their lives within particular social, cultural, and historical contexts. Unlike archive-only biographical work, the field-based variant requires the researcher to be physically present in the participant's social world over time, gathering both spoken life stories and observational data from that world.	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.
