Definition

Informational segregation refers to the separation or division of information based on certain characteristics, such as race, ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic status. This can occur in various settings, such as schools, workplaces, media, and society as a whole.

Informational segregation can have negative implications, as it can reinforce stereotypes, limit access to diverse perspectives, and perpetuate inequalities. It can also contribute to the spread of misinformation and the reinforcement of biased narratives.

Efforts to reduce informational segregation can include promoting diversity and inclusion in the sources of information, ensuring equitable access to information for all individuals, and actively challenging and addressing biases and stereotypes in information dissemination. By breaking down informational segregation, society can move toward a more inclusive and informed community.
