===== Definition ===== Multi-contextual segregation refers to the separation or division of individuals or groups based on various contexts or settings. It refers to the existence of multiple forms of segregation that occur simultaneously in different aspects of life, such as education, housing, employment, and social interactions. For example, in education, multi-contextual segregation may occur when students from different racial or socioeconomic backgrounds are segregated not only within schools but also within classrooms, extracurricular activities, and academic tracks or programs. This segregation can perpetuate inequalities and limit opportunities for certain groups of students. Similarly, in housing, multi-contextual segregation may involve the separation of different racial or ethnic groups not only in terms of residential neighborhoods but also within apartment buildings or housing units. This type of segregation can lead to the concentration of poverty and the perpetuation of social and economic disparities. Furthermore, multi-contextual segregation can also occur in employment, where certain groups may face barriers and discrimination not only in terms of access to specific jobs but also within workplaces, such as through unequal assignments, promotion opportunities, or pay scales. Overall, multi-contextual segregation highlights the interconnectedness of various forms of segregation and the ways in which they intersect and reinforce each other to create and perpetuate social inequalities. Addressing multi-contextual segregation requires comprehensive and holistic approaches that tackle discrimination and inequality across different contexts and settings.
