A just society is manifested by the fair distribution of inequalities (equity), harmony with nature (allowing for intergenerational equity), and recognition of the contribution to the common good.

The concept

Health Equity Ethics

This working group aims to delve into the ethical aspects of taking the concept of sustainable health equity as a powerful benchmarking tool for addressing health inequalities in a lasting manner. The focus will be on exploring the implications of establishing clear standards to achieve the highest possible level of health for current and future generations. This involves steering clear of accumulating resources excessively beyond economically feasible and broadly applicable limits, all while maintaining due respect for planetary boundaries.

The tool

The Sustainable Health Equity Atlas encompasses 170 countries with populations exceeding 100,000 inhabitants. It presents data through the country's health equity profile, which includes 21 distinct indicators, three comparative tables, and a comprehensive summary. The indicators, tables, maps, and videos are derived from a comprehensive collection of over two million international data points spanning from 1960 to the present day.
