This is the first of two essays addressing equity and social justice, which are interrelated concepts of considerable interest to members of the discipline of nursing. The purpose of this essay is to define equity and related terms, including inequity, inequality, and disparities, within the context of the intersection of nursing and population health science. An essay about social justice will appear in a subsequent issue of Nursing Science Quarterly.
