equity-focused licensing

Equity-focused licensing prioritizes fairness and inclusivity in how licenses are granted, ensuring that marginalized or underrepresented groups have better access to resources, opportunities, or rights. It involves designing licensing agreements that promote social equity, such as providing greater access or support to communities historically disadvantaged. This approach aims to reduce disparities and foster a more just distribution of benefits, recognizing diverse needs while maintaining legal protections. Overall, it balances the rights of license holders with broader societal goals of fairness and equal opportunity.
