Health Equity

Fair and Ethical Chance for a Healthier Life

According to the World Health Organization, social determinants of health account for between 30-55% of all health outcomes. Recent research shows that things like economic stability, education, and housing are as, if not more, important than health care or lifestyle choices in influencing health. 

According to the Center for Disease Control, the definition of health equity is the state in which everyone has a fair and just opportunity to attain their highest level of health. However, achieving that goal requires the direct attention and resolution of many problems coming from social, economic, and environmental factors that influence health outcomes.


We at Obvious Architecture believe that the world can be a better place by:

 

  • Increasing knowledge and awareness of the value and significance of health equity.
  • Gathering and examining data on health conditions and differences among various populations.
  • Creating and applying evidence-based solutions and actions that tackle the underlying causes of health inequalities. 
  • Working together and cooperating with other sectors and partners that have a shared purpose and aim for health equity.
  • Assessing and tracking the outcomes and efficiency of health equity efforts.
  • Recognizing, supporting, and spreading achievements and best practices in attaining health equity.
