decentralization

Decentralization refers to the process of dispersing power, authority, and decision-making away from central authorities and management structures, towards local and regional levels of governance, management, and ownership. It involves the fragmentation of control across different actors, institutions, and stakeholders, allowing for increased autonomy, accountability, and participation. Decentralization can apply to various domains, including political, economic, social, and technological systems, and aims to promote more equitable and sustainable development, as well as better responsiveness to local needs and aspirations.
