INTRODUCTION

• Social diversity is regarded as something which makes

this universe more liveable and attractive. The countries
like India are well known for their diversified nature in
various aspects such as faith, rituals and customs,
geographical differences, linguistic elements, and other
social aspects.
SOCIAL DIVERSITY: DEFINITION

Social diversity refers to differences seen in a particular

society with respect to religions, cultural backgrounds,
social status, economic status, and so on. Social diversity is
regarded as something that makes the universe more
liveable and attractive
(Young 1994).
SOCIAL DIVERSITY: MEANING

• The concept of diversification regulates how people

change through time to become distinctly unique
individuals who can coexist in their places in society
without upsetting one another. Diverse factors in the
workplace, including administration and organization,
functional level, categorization, or even proximity to
headquarters, all contribute to a complete picture of
diversity than just the more obvious factors of ethnicity,
age, ethnicity, or gender.
TYPES OF SOCIAL DIVERSITY

• Varieties of Social Differences

• The criteria by which differences in society are identified
and defined allow for categorizing that variety into distinct
subsets. The following are some of the most prevalent
forms of variety in the cosmos.
INDIVIDUAL DIVERSITY

• Significance of Each Person − Individual differences are

increasingly recognized as an important facet of societal
variety. So, what exactly do we mean when we talk about
individual differences? Simply put, it refers to the fact that
members of the same social group might have vastly
different levels of intellect, Intelligence, passion, mood,
capacity, strategy, insight, and other personality qualities
while sharing the same culture or set of experiences.
REGIONAL DIVERSITY

• The Disparity in Locations − Some nations have a variety

of beautiful landscapes, including mountains, lakes,
coastlines, forests, and more. Other kinds have emerged
because of the geographic variation that has emerged.
How individuals look, feel, think, act, dress, eat, etc., are
all affected by this variety of factors.
LINGUISTIC DIVERSITY

• Multiple Languages − If members of a society can

communicate with one another in several different
tongues, we say that society has linguistic diversity. In
certain nations or communities, there may be dozens of
variations in a single language. Charm is heightened in
multilingual societies because of the variety of literary
texts and linguistic symbols used by its members.
Additionally, language is a key component of culture. This
means that a society whose individuals speak a wide
range of languages will also be a cultural melting pot.
RELIGIOUS DIVERSITY

• Religious diversity is the fact that there are significant

differences in religious belief and practice. It has always
been recognized by people outside the smallest and most
isolated communities.
CONCLUSION

• Diversity offers several advantages to society. But there

are social diversity issues that can arise due to our
differences. In a diverse space, we might have to interact
with people who speak a different language than ours or
simply have different communication styles than the
culture we group up in. This can lead to communication
issues that may be difficult to work around or manage.
