Definition

Migrant segregation refers to the separation or isolation of migrant communities within a society or community. This can occur due to various factors such as language barriers, cultural differences, socio-economic disparities, and discrimination. Migrant segregation can lead to social exclusion, marginalization, and limited access to resources and opportunities for migrants. It can also contribute to the perpetuation of stereotypes and prejudices against migrant communities. Efforts to address migrant segregation often involve promoting integration, inclusion, and diversity in society.
