Social opportunities refer to the chances people have to improve their lives through education, healthcare, jobs, and social activities. In Geography, it means how people in different places can access services and resources that help them live better lives. For example, living in a big city might offer better social opportunities, like more schools, hospitals, and fun recreational activities, compared to rural areas. These opportunities are important because they can affect how people live, their health, and their future prospects. Understanding social opportunities helps us learn how different areas can improve and become more equal.
