Diversity

The multitude of socially relevant differences between people, both ‘clearly’ recognisable (age, gender, ethnicity, disability, …) and less clearly recognisable differences (orientation, personality, social class, …) (PXL University College, inspired by Davidovic & Terlouw, 2015). As such, diversity can be considered subjective, meaning it is created by individuals who characterise others as similar or dissimilar to themselves (Corlia Twine, 2022). Superdiversity adds a quantitative (more diversity) and qualitative (diversity within diversity) component (Geldof, 2015) (PXL University College).
