> Most importantly, the formation of questions itself is a site of power. The questions we as a society ask science to address both reflect and create the values and power dynamics of social systems, whether the scientific disciplines recognize this influence or not. [...] Moving forward, how do we, as researchers, develop questions that not only welcome intellectual variety within the sciences but also embrace the diversity represented in societies?

> This introduction to equity science is an invitation and challenge to others in global, public and population health and health sciences to move beyond an EDI rhetoric. We offer a structured set of methods, tools, and approaches to inform the transformational, interventional, and systems-changing work of collectively shaping more equitable futures at the heart of our shared aspirations for closing the gap in *this* generation.
