The Health Equity Movement

The Health Equity Movement aims to ensure that everyone has a fair opportunity to attain their full health potential, regardless of social, economic, or environmental factors. It recognizes that disparities—such as differences in access to healthcare, healthy food, safe neighborhoods, and education—contribute to unequal health outcomes. The movement advocates for policies, practices, and community efforts that address these root causes, promoting justice and fairness in health for all populations. Its goal is to eliminate health disparities and create a more equitable system where all individuals can achieve optimal health.
