Social cohesion is essential for a harmonious society, but what exactly does it mean? HEKS-EPER Moldova explained the term by providing concrete examples of how to facilitate the socio-economic integration of refugees and vulnerable Moldovans.
Imagine a community as a jigsaw puzzle. Social cohesion is the ‘glue’ that holds the pieces together, creating a complete picture. It refers to the positive bonds between community members, the sense of belonging, and shared responsibility.
“A cohesive society is one in which all members feel included, respected, and able to contribute to the common good. It ensures that all its members, regardless of origin, social or economic status, have access to equal opportunities,” the organization’s post reads.
