What is Social Equity?

Content: This means that knowledge is a collective asset of society and should be fairly distributed and offered to all members of society. When understanding equity, it is important to address education as an opportunity to fix social stratification and the differences that occur in everyone’s life. This means addressing each learner as entitled to learn, that their education should be developed to optimize their lives and potential by complementing and augmenting their shortcomings. We often neglect this in society through disproportional allocations of educational resources which further perpetuates social stratification and economic class division. Justice – Real legal justice is often forfeited when a society has systemically oppressed and disadvantaged a specific segment of the population. I don’t have to specify a specific case of this because it happens in every society. It’s wrong. Ingrained bias, coupled with the unequal access to opportunity only further negative social behaviour from the oppressed group. Equitable justice looks past the surface and understands the context the circumstances of social inequality and offers those disadvantaged real arbitrations and rehabilitation practices equal to that of peers in other social segments. The difference of like sentencing and overall legal treatment is often indicative of social injustice in a society and is the first step to solving it.
