Individual segregation refers to the separation of individuals based on certain characteristics, such as race, ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic status. This can manifest in various ways, such as discriminatory practices in housing, education, employment, or social settings. Individual segregation can lead to inequalities in access to resources and opportunities, as well as perpetuate stereotypes and biases. Efforts to address individual segregation often involve policies and initiatives aimed at promoting diversity and inclusivity.
