economic barriers

Economic barriers are obstacles that prevent individuals or groups from participating fully in economic activities, often due to financial limitations. These barriers can include lack of access to affordable education, healthcare, credit, or employment opportunities. For example, someone unable to afford higher education may find it harder to secure well-paying jobs, or a small business may struggle to get funding to grow. Economic barriers can perpetuate inequality by limiting mobility and access to resources necessary for economic success, ultimately affecting overall economic growth and social equity.
