Collective goods are resources or services that are made available to all members of a society, regardless of their individual contribution to the provision of those goods. These goods are characterized by being non-excludable and non-rivalrous, meaning that one person's use does not diminish another's ability to use them, and individuals cannot be effectively excluded from using them. This characteristic often leads to challenges in their funding and maintenance due to issues like the free-rider problem.
