Sectarianise is a verb that refers to the act or process of creating or intensifying divisions, conflicts, or hostilities, particularly of a religious or factional nature, within a community, organization, or society. It involves the promotion or development of strong sectarian sentiments or attitudes, often leading to polarization and schisms among its members or different groups within the community.
When a community is sectarianised, its unity and cohesion may be undermined as individuals or factions become increasingly focused on the differences and beliefs that separate them, rather than the common values or goals they share. This often results in a heightened sense of identity and loyalty towards a particular sect or subgroup at the expense of inclusiveness and understanding.
The sectarianisation of a society or organization can occur due to numerous factors, including ideological extremism, social inequality, political manipulation, or historical grievances that have not been sufficiently addressed. It may occur gradually or abruptly, fueled by propaganda, religious fundamentalism, or discriminatory practices that marginalize certain groups. The process of sectarianisation tends to perpetuate conflict, foster discrimination, and hinder social progress, making it challenging to find common ground or resolve grievances through dialogue and cooperation.
Efforts to counter sectarianism and prevent the sectarianisation of communities often emphasize the promotion of tolerance, respect, and understanding among different religious, ethnic, or political groups, as well as the creation of inclusive policies and institutions that address the needs and aspirations of diverse sections of society.

The word "sectarianise" does not have a clear etymology as it is not a widely recognized or commonly used term. It seems to be a derived form of the word "sectarian", which refers to a person or group adhering strongly to a particular sect or denomination, often characterized by a narrow-minded or exclusive attitude. The suffix "-ise" is added to the base word "sectarian" to form the verb "sectarianise", meaning to promote or engage in sectarian behavior or to make something sectarian in nature. However, it is important to note that "sectarianise" is not a commonly accepted word and may not be recognized or found in standard dictionaries.
