Abstract Infants, children, and youth with serious illness, and their families continue to face inequities in access to pediatric palliative care across Canada. This paper explores what it means to take an equity-informed approach within this field and why such a shift is urgently needed. Drawing on current literature and emerging insights from practice and policy, it outlines key considerations for embedding equity principles into pediatric palliative care and calls for ongoing collaboration toward more inclusive, responsive, and just systems of care for children and families.
