Sažetak	Participatory phenomenology combines the depth of phenomenological inquiry — attending to the lived structure of experience — with the democratic ethos of participatory research, in which those being studied become active co-researchers. Rather than treating participants as data sources, the approach positions them as collaborative investigators of their own experiential world, producing knowledge that is both phenomenologically rich and collectively validated.	Participatory Action Research (PAR) is a qualitative, community-centred methodology in which researchers and community members collaborate as co-investigators to identify a shared problem, take deliberate action, observe outcomes, and reflect critically on results — cycling iteratively until meaningful change is achieved. Unlike conventional research that studies people from the outside, PAR treats participants as active agents who co-own the research process, the knowledge produced, and the practical interventions that follow.
