Social equality is important in society as it:
Means people receive their Human Rights
Social equality ensures everyone has the same and equal rights and are treated fairly.
Promotes equal opportunities
Everyone has the same access to the same opportunities.
Promotes inclusion
Encourages everyone to feel a sense of belonging to community/society.
Reduces discrimination
Human rights and equality laws make discrimination illegal. This encourages respect for diversity and living together peacefully.
Promotes a sense of well-being among people
Social equality means everyone has access to education, health care, shelter and basic needs such as food and water and it ensures everyone has a quality of life.
Reduces disadvantage
Social equality reduces the possibility of certain individuals/minority groups becoming disadvantaged in society.
