Social Equity Analysis can be used to understand community conditions, analyze demographic data, and communicate racial equity initiatives.
Governments across the globe struggle to ensure residents have opportunities to continue their education, secure a well-paying job, find healthy foods, access affordable health care, and locate housing options in safe neighborhoods. They recognize many face challenges due in part to systematic and structural barriers, that constrain access to opportunity. Social equity aims to understand how systems negatively affect certain groups and level the playing field by making investments aligned with the severity of needs. Many governments are making a commitment to social equity and seeking interventions, or policy changes, that reduce burdens for marginalized communities. Social Equity Analysis is typically implemented by state and local governments that want to understand unique characteristics and conditions that exist in their community and how actions they are taking impact access or needs.
The Social Equity Analysis solution delivers a set of capabilities that help you assess demographic data and community conditions, operationalize equity plans, and communicate key racial equity initiatives to internal and external stakeholders.
