mainstreaming

The act of making a specific concept, practice, or policy a standard part of a broader system or general public consciousness. / The process of integrating people with disabilities into regular classrooms or social environments rather than placing them in segregated settings.
Noun

This term is primarily used in professional, bureaucratic, and academic registers, particularly within sociology, education, and public policy. It describes a shift from the periphery to the center, suggesting that a once-specialized or marginalized concern is now being treated as a standard operational requirement.

In educational contexts, the term carries a specific history of inclusivity, though it is sometimes replaced by "inclusion" to emphasize a more holistic integration. In policy contexts, it refers to the systemic integration of a specific perspective, such as gender or environmental sustainability, across all sectors of government rather than treating it as a standalone project.
