What is Social Capital

Social capital can be described as "the networks of relationships among people who live and work in a particular society, enabling that society to function effectively" . Interpersonal relationships, a common sense of identity, a shared understanding, shared norms, shared values, trust, collaboration, and reciprocity are all essential components of this concept. It plays a role in the efficient operation of social organizations. A measure of the value of resources, both material and intangible, as well as the influence that ideal creators have on the resources engaged in each connection and on larger groups, social capital is a measurement of the influence that ideal creators have. Despite the fact that this does not correspond with the way that it has been assessed, there are many who have characterized it as a type of capital that generates public goods for a shared purpose.
