This paper explores the highly subjective issue of global equity and presents two models for defining and measuring it over time. The paper makes several basic assumptions to simplify the problem, including using various child indicators to evaluate quality of life, subjectively assessing their impact, and weighting them to obtain the quality-of-life value. The paper defines absolute and relative fairness and shows how the quality of life of newborns correlates with equity. The models use the Analytic Hierarchy Process and quality-of-life values to identify factors that affect equity and assess it between different countries. The paper validates the models using historical data and existing conclusions. Overall, the paper provides a framework for evaluating and improving global equity that can help address issues such as poverty, environmental pollution, and lack of resources.
