Diversity means having differences among people in a group, like different races, genders, religions, cultures, experiences, and ideas.

Inequity is a characteristic of a situation where there are not equal opportunities and different groups face different life obstacles and outcomes imposed by current or historical conditions.

Equality is having things be the same. In this case, we define equality as giving all groups the same opportunities and resources. Equality does not take oppression and privilege into consideration in allocating opportunities and resources.

Equity means providing resources and supports to groups depending on their needs and the different obstacles and mistreatment they have faced.
