Intergenerational Equity is equality in treatment for different generations.^[1]

Contents 1 Usage 2 See also 3 Related literature 4 References

Conversations about intergenerational equity occur across several fields.^[2] They include transition economics^[3], social policy, and government budget-making.^[4] Intergenerational equity is also explored in environmental concerns, including sustainable development^[5], global warming and climate change.

Conversations about intergenerational equity are also relevant to social justice arenas as well, where issues such as health care^[6] are equal in importance to youth rights and youth voice are pressing and urgent. There is a strong interest within the legal community towards the application of intergenerational equity in law.^[7]
