Setting a more equitable public agenda

Description

Setting a more equitable public agenda involves actively identifying and prioritizing the needs of marginalized and underrepresented groups in policy-making processes. This strategy ensures diverse stakeholder participation, transparent decision-making, and the allocation of resources to address systemic inequalities. By correcting imbalances in influence and access, it remedies exclusion, fosters social justice, and promotes fairer outcomes in public policies and programs, ultimately strengthening societal cohesion and trust in governance.

Claim

A deliberate, informed and participatory public agenda to achieve more equitable outcomes is required in a society where no one racial or ethnic group will hold the majority, which has a growing gap between rich and poor, and where persistent poverty remains in the midst of wealth.
