Definition

Societal segregation refers to the separation or division of different groups within a society based on factors such as race, ethnicity, socio-economic status, religion, or other characteristics. This segregation can manifest in various ways, including residential segregation, educational segregation, and economic segregation. It can result in unequal access to resources, opportunities, and social networks, leading to disparities in quality of life and perpetuating social inequality. Efforts to address societal segregation often involve promoting diversity, inclusion, and equal access to opportunities for all members of society.
