The REIB engages and addresses the ‘Domains of Inequality’,
REIB evaluates five domains: Economy, Health, Social and Human Development, Physical Environment, and Community and Belonging.
Each domain focuses on specific areas of life where racial disparities can be observed.
How the Domains of Inequality Relate to Racism and Community Impacts:
Economy: This domain looks at disparities in employment, income, access to capital, business ownership, and more. It aims to address systemic racial inequality in economic opportunities.
Health: Recognizing racism as a public health crisis, this domain evaluates disparities in health outcomes, access to healthcare, and cultural competency in healthcare settings.
Social and Human Development: This domain addresses inequities in education, recreation, family development, and professional development. It aims to improve educational outcomes and access to opportunities.
Physical Environment: This domain focuses on housing, neighborhood development, public infrastructure, and land use to ensure equitable access to amenities and living conditions.
Community and Belonging: This domain addresses systemic inequities in public safety, civic engagement, and representation in power structures. It aims to create a sense of belonging and equity in these areas.
