Adequacy of Representation

Adequacy of Representation refers to how well a group or population is represented in decision-making processes or governance. It examines whether the diverse interests, perspectives, and demographics of a community are effectively included in discussions and decisions that affect them. If certain groups are underrepresented, their needs and views may be overlooked, leading to decisions that do not benefit the entire population. Achieving adequate representation ensures that all voices are heard and considered, promoting fairness and inclusivity in various contexts, such as politics, business, and social initiatives.
