What is one of the goals of achieving health equity?

The goal of achieving health equity is fundamentally about ensuring that all groups, regardless of their background or circumstances, have the opportunity to attain their highest level of health. This includes addressing and eliminating disparities that exist among different populations due to factors such as socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, and geographic location. Improving the health of all groups means working towards systems and policies that ensure equitable access to resources, quality healthcare, and preventative measures, ultimately leading to better overall health outcomes for everyone. The emphasis is on inclusivity and addressing the unique challenges faced by marginalized and underserved communities to create a fair health landscape.
