Rafta

Rafta, or the "Rafta model," is a concept in social and behavioral sciences that describes the dynamic between individual behavior and broader social influences. It recognizes that personal decisions are not made in isolation but are shaped by various social factors, such as culture, community, and relationships. This model helps researchers understand how societal norms and structures affect individual actions and vice versa, highlighting the interconnectedness between individual agency and social context. It is often used to analyze issues related to public health, education, and community development.
