Definition
{NoteAI} Catchment area segregation refers to the practice of dividing a geographic area into smaller sections or zones based on certain criteria, such as demographics or socio-economic status. This segregation can lead to disparities in the provision of resources and services, such as education or healthcare, within different catchment areas. It can also contribute to the perpetuation of inequality and social exclusion within a community. Efforts to address catchment area segregation may involve policies aimed at promoting equitable access to services and opportunities for all residents, regardless of where they live.
