What is Face Equality?
Face Equality refers to the concept that individuals should be treated fairly and without discrimination based on their facial appearance.
It emphasizes the idea that everyone, regardless of their facial features, has inherent value and should be respected with the same rights and opportunities.




What is a facial difference?
Any mark, scar or condition affecting the appearance of the head and/or neck.
This might include:
Cogenital conditions (craniofacial anomalies such as: Apert or Crouzon syndrome, Cleft Lip, etc.)
Scars/burns
Skin conditions (acne/psoriasis)
Birthmarks
Cancer/disease
Note on Language: Trying to say the right thing can sometimes be uncomfortable. If in doubt, ask someone how they self-identify i.e. ‘I have a visible difference.’
FACES: The National Craniofacial Association is one of the founding members of Face Equality International, an alliance of Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs), charities and support groups which are working at national, regional, or international levels to promote the campaign for Face Equality.
