I'm a qualitative researcher myself. I'm familiar with a couple of analytical methods (some very popular ones and a few not so popular ones) such as:
But I wanted to know what else is there? Are there any other novel analytical methods that you have ever heard that could be specifically useful when analysing data from disadvantaged and marginalized populations?
I am no expert and I was trained in public health at the master's level. Community-based participatory research (CBPR) is a potential approach. Participatory Action Research (PAR) is another as the name implies. However, as you might imagine there are still concerns regarding hegemony and power dynamics. Sirry Alang; Hasshan Batts; & Abby Letcher write about this here: Article Interrogating academic hegemony in community-based participa...
I have seen others integrate and collaborate with those that have direct experience. For instance, Emily Wang, MD is a genius in working at the intersection of criminal legal systems and health. She and her team have written about training and working with people directly impacted by incarceration here. This is a high bar! Article The Share Project: Building Capacity of Justice-Involved Ind...
I only know some ethnographers have collaborated with their "subjects" before publishing material (e.g. Mitch Duneier's Sidewalk). I look forward to following this question and apologies if not too helpful.
Granheim and Lundman have a phenomenological hermeneutical approach, with analytical stages, which is flexible. You may have different levels of interpretation and abstraction, which is important to take into account when finding a balance between the participants voices, the general, the specific and the interprentative part of analysis. This is a qualitative content analysis.

I used this approach in a study of suicidal patients. I have reflected about the choiced made in appying this method, see:https://hdl.handle.net/11250/2675498
A pragmatic approach to qualitative analysis not mentioned in your list is Malteruds text condensation, based on phenomenology

Peyman Abkhezr It's a great question. Please have a look at decolonizing and relational theoretical research frameworks. I have written some articles in this area, you may have a look:

Thanks Ranjan Datta I will have a look at your work and I hope I can find some particular analytical methods for engaging with research data.
Thanks Siv Hilde Berg for the suggestions.
I will certainly look more closely at what you suggsted on Qualitative content analysis and what I never heard before on "Systematic text condensation".
