Infrastructure

Infrastructure refers to the fundamental facilities and systems that support the functioning of a society or enterprise. This includes the physical structures such as transportation systems (roads, bridges, railways, airports), utilities (water supply, sewage, electricity, telecommunications), and buildings (hospitals, schools, government facilities). Infrastructure enables the movement of goods and people, facilitates communication, and provides essential services necessary for economic activity and quality of life. It is a critical component for development and can significantly influence a region’s economic growth, social cohesion, and overall quality of living. Infrastructure can be categorized into different types, such as social infrastructure (focused on social services) and economic infrastructure (focused on economic activities).
