title: Global health and equity. Part 1: setting the context.
abstract: Equity is considered one of the prerequisites and conditions for health. The pursuit of global health and equity is a relevant goal for nursing, based on the belief that health is a core phenomenon of interest to the discipline. In this article, the first in a two-part series, global health, equity and globalization are analysed. In addition, factors that contribute to global health inequity, including their relevance for nurses and nursing, are examined.
