social inclusion  

Definition

  • The concept of social inclusion has increasingly been seen as a new paradigm informing public policy. Responding to the changing nature and role of the state, in particular, the constraints imposed upon it by the actions of international and transnational actors, social inclusion promotes the involvement of a broader range of actors, including civil society organizations as well as governments, in addressing the multifaceted nature of disadvantage.
