Burchardt's theory
Burchardt’s theory focuses on understanding social exclusion as a multi-dimensional process, where individuals may face barriers in various areas like employment, education, healthcare, social participation, and housing. It emphasizes that exclusion is not just about income but also about lacking access to opportunities and resources that allow full participation in society. The theory advocates for a comprehensive approach to social policy, aiming to reduce these barriers and enable individuals to achieve greater social inclusion, thereby improving their overall well-being and sense of belonging within the community.
