Data analysis
The sample was reviewed using our equity analysis analytical framework
(see Supplementary Table 1). All authors on this paper were co-authors
on at least one of the case study papers analysed. Analysis of the case
study papers was distributed across co-authors based on familiarity with
the topic of each paper. For each dimension of equity, we assessed
whether and which sections of each paper explicitly addressed that
dimension, and in relation to what issue. Where equity was specifically
considered in at least one dimension, we then asked a) whose equity was
affected, b) the positive/negative outcome for equity, and c) what was
proposed in the pathway to a sustainable future that could affect this.
The lead author of this paper (KA) filled gaps in the analysis as
necessary and made sure the framework was, as far as possible, applied
consistently. Finally, data were input into an Excel spreadsheet so that
patterns and gaps could more easily be identified in the equity
dimensions and specific issues addressed or not addressed across the
sample.
