inclusionary
Open to everyone
Inclusionary describes policies or practices designed to include people who might otherwise be excluded, especially in housing.
An inclusionary zoning ordinance requires developers to set aside a percentage of units as affordable housing.
The word contrasts with exclusionary—inclusionary measures actively work to bring people in rather than keep them out.
