socioeconomic affirmative action

Socioeconomic affirmative action is a policy that seeks to promote equal opportunities by considering an individual's economic background, such as income level, education, and access to resources. It aims to address disparities caused by economic inequality, helping students or applicants from lower-income or underprivileged backgrounds gain fairer access to education, jobs, or opportunities. Unlike race-based affirmative action, it focuses on economic status regardless of ethnicity, emphasizing how financial hardship can limit opportunities and aiming to create a more level playing field for everyone.
