Përmbledhja	Participatory Qualitative Content Analysis (PQCA) integrates the systematic text-analytic procedures of qualitative content analysis with the collaborative, power-sharing ethos of participatory research. Community members or stakeholders join the research team as co-analysts — helping to define the coding frame, interpret categories, and validate findings — rather than serving merely as data sources. The result is analysis that is both methodologically rigorous and grounded in the perspectives of those most affected by the research topic.	Reflexive Thematic Analysis (RTA) is a widely used qualitative method for identifying, analysing, and interpreting patterns of shared meaning — called themes — across a dataset. Developed by Virginia Braun and Victoria Clarke, it is theoretically flexible, works across epistemological positions, and foregrounds the researcher's active, interpretive role rather than treating themes as features that simply emerge from data. It differs from older 'codebook' approaches by treating the analyst's subjectivity as a resource rather than a source of bias to be suppressed.
