"Of all the forms of inequality, inequality in healthcare is the most shocking and inhumane." - Martin Luther King Jr

Equity is the absence of unfair, avoidable, and remediable differences among groups of people in society. Health is a human right. Health equity can be achieved when everyone can attain their full potential of health and well-being. Realising the right to health, means identifying and eliminating the disparities and discriminations that cause ill health.
