Social Justice Praxis in Nursing Midwifery and Healthcare

Nurses and Midwives play a critically important role in recognising and responding to the needs of marginalised, vulnerable and minority groups. Evidence of health inequities and the role of the social determinants of health tell us just how important these are for the health and wellbeing of our patients and clients. The principles of equity, diversity and inclusion are therefore increasingly being seen as core concepts and underpinning values for nursing and midwifery education, as well as the subject of much of our research.
