freedoms and conditions that every person is entitled to regardless of factors such as race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation, age and sex. The role of Governments is to ensure all people have their human rights protected, respected and promoted.
Access
All people should have access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive, including food, safe water, shelter, education, employment, income and health care. All people need to be able to participate in decisions that affect their lives, such as if and when they get married or have children, or the sorts of jobs they have.
Participation
everyone in society has the opportunity to participate in their community and have their voice represented.
Equity
disadvantaged individuals and groups need to have their specific challenges addressed, so they can achieve the same level of health and wellbeing as others in the population. In this sense, equity relates to providing more support for those who need it.
