Definition

Ethno-cultural segregation refers to the social and spatial separation of different ethnic or cultural groups within a society. This segregation can manifest in various ways, such as residential segregation, educational segregation, and occupational segregation.

Ethno-cultural segregation can lead to social inequalities, discrimination, and tensions between different ethnic or cultural groups. It can also hinder social cohesion and integration within a society.

Policies and initiatives aimed at promoting diversity, inclusion, and integration can help address ethno-cultural segregation and promote a more harmonious and equitable society. This can include efforts to promote mixed communities, inclusive education, and anti-discrimination measures.
