CFAR is committed to working towards equal opportunity for everyone in society and accepts responsibility to eliminate actively, in its functioning, discrimination against individuals and groups on grounds of gender, marital status, nationality, history or sexual orientation.

CFAR is committed to ensuring that individuals are selected and treated on their relevant merits and abilities.

In line with this equal opportunity policy, CFAR has sought and will continue to seek to promote an accurate understanding of the experience of stigma  and prejudice that manifest themselves in people who have been diagnosed as ‘mentally ill’ and to analyse the reasons for and forms of such stigma and prejudice.
