Editing Intracommunity segregation (section)

===== Definition ===== 

Intra community segregation refers to the separation or division of people within a specific community or locality, based on social, economic, or cultural factors. This segregation occurs within a community itself, rather than between different communities.

Intra community segregation can manifest in various forms. These may include racial or ethnic segregation, where certain racial or ethnic groups within a community are physically separated or isolated from others. It can also refer to economic segregation, where individuals of different socioeconomic statuses live in separate areas or neighborhoods within the same community. 

Segregation within a community can have negative consequences. It can lead to disparities in access to resources, opportunities, and social services, resulting in inequality and limited upward mobility for certain groups. It can also contribute to social tension, lack of understanding, and cultural isolation between different groups within the community. Additionally, intra-community segregation can perpetuate stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination, hindering social integration and cohesion.

Efforts to address intra-community segregation often involve promoting diversity, inclusivity, and equal access to resources within the community. This can include implementing policies or programs that promote integration, providing affordable housing options in different areas, fostering community engagement, and challenging discriminatory practices.
