Health Equity in Science: A Giving Smarter Guide
Health equity is the state in which every person has a fair and just opportunity to achieve the best possible health. Achieving health equity is challenging because of many factors, including socioeconomic disparities, racial and ethnic discrimination, educational inequities, geographic limitations, cultural and language barriers, environmental exposures, political influences, and social factors such as the availability of housing, transportation, and social support systems. These factors affect who is involved in scientific research, what scientific questions are asked, and how scientific funding is directed―translating to inequities in how science is conducted. This, in turn, perpetuates health inequities by yielding findings that aren’t relevant to diverse populations. Many efforts are underway to break this cycle and move toward greater health equity.
