Spanish term or phrase: "igualdad y equidad"

I'm trying to find a good way of expressing the author's intention here, in differentiating between the two terms. This comes from an article on education, and assigning resources for better outcomes among underprivileged children.
The phrase is: "Es la diferencia entre la igualdad y la equidad. Lo primero es que todos tengan lo mismo, y lo segundo, la equidad, es que todos obtengan el mismo resultado. Y para lograr esto último necesitamos pagar más por ciertas cosas. Si un niño, por ejemplo, está en un ambiente rural, donde es difícil encontrar profesores, habrá que pagar salarios más altos para atraer a los mejores candidatos por esos cargos. Así se trabaja en equidad de resultados más que en igualdad de recursos."
I can't seem to come up with the right word pair to express what he is getting at.

equality and equity

Explanation:
'Equity is the state or quality of being just or fair with impartiality. Equity is justice achieved not simply according to the strictness of law, but in accordance with principles of substantial justice and the unique facts of the case. An equity is an ownership interest in a corporation or a property, usually calculated as a remaining value after deductions of debts and liabilities.'
www.thefreedictionary.com/equity
'Equality is the state or quality of being equal, a uniform character of motions and surfaces. It's a statement that two qualities are equal.'
www.thefreedictionary.com/equality

In the information the equality is concerning possessions whereby all would have the same or similar belongings. The equity is with respect to results, which come from case examples in isolation. For instance, to achieve equality of good standard results, teachers in rural communities can be paid an additional allowance.

(La equidad es el estado o la cualidad de la justicia con imparcialidad y sinceridad. La equidad es la justicia lograda no sólo según la rigurosidad de la ley, sino de acuerdo con los principios de la justicia sustancial y los hechos únicos del caso. Una equidad es un interés de una posesión en una corporación o una propiedad, normalmente calculada como un valor restante después de las reducciones de las deudas.
La igualidad es la cualidad de ser iguales, el carácter uniforme de mociones y superficies. Es una afirmación que las cualidades son iguales.)

Example sentence(s):

En la información la egalidad se trata de las posesiones mediante las cuales tendríamos algo parecido. La equidad se trata de los resultados, que son de casos únicos y aislados.
Por ejemplo, un profesor en una comunidad rural puede pagarse una subvención adicional para poder lograr la egalidad de los resultados de buenos niiveles de trabajo.
