Health Justice

Health justice is the principle that everyone should have fair and equal access to health care and the resources needed to stay healthy, regardless of their background, income, or social circumstances. It recognizes that social factors like poverty, education, and environment influence health outcomes, and aims to address these inequalities. The goal is to ensure that all individuals can achieve optimal health and receive appropriate medical care, reducing disparities rooted in social injustice and structural barriers. In essence, health justice seeks fairness in health opportunities and outcomes for all members of society.
