What is Equitable:
Equitable is an adjective that means something relating to or pertaining to equity or equality, having equity. It is identified with other terms such as justice and impartiality.
Some words that can be considered synonyms are: impartial, upright, equanimous, fair, honest, upright, moderate. Words that have an opposite meaning are: partial and unfair.
This word derives from Latin aequitas, -ātisand means “equality”.
equitable distribution
The term equitable distribution refers, at a social level, to the equality of distributed resources by the competent authority. In society, an equitable distribution of wealth, for example, represents one of the demands of many citizens and even a social value.
On the other hand, when economic power is based on the possession of resources in the hands of certain people, situations of social injustice occur.
That is why, sometimes, we speak of an equitable distribution or a distribution of wealth to refer to an opposite situation in which there is greater basic justice.

Equitable development
Equitable development is a process that occurs in a balanced manner. It is fundamentally applied to the environmental and social field.
It refers to the sustainable use of environmental resources that do not cause situations of social injustice. It is not only about existing resources, but about the different processes related to progress that do not usually occur in the same way in different regions.
For example, within a certain area, there is no equitable development when you have access to elements of the welfare state, such as healthcare, only in certain places.
Equitable development means giving value to the people of a certain territory to advance fair and reasonable progress that takes into account the social and economic reality in order to develop appropriately.
