Equity is the thread that ties each of our three pillars together: Global Health, Social Equity, and Climate Justice. Equity is different from equality, where everyone gets an equal share of the pie. Equity is not about equal division but instead about giving each individual what they need to survive and succeed based on where they are and where they want to be.
- Global Health Equity means no one is precluded from good health based on their race, income, or location.
- Social Equity means gender, sexuality, race and other dimensions of a person’s identity no longer determine their socioeconomic outcome.
