What is Equity
Equity is fair and just access, participation, experiences, and success.
Achieving equity is everyone's right and responsibility, and it involves considering a wide range of relevant, and sometimes competing, factors and perspectives. Te Ara Tautika | Equity Policy describes our principles, responsibilities, and commitments.
