fair access

Impartial entry rights

Fair access is the principle that everyone should have equal opportunity to use or benefit from something—resources, services, information, or opportunities—regardless of their background or circumstances.

The term appears in policy discussions about education, healthcare, internet connectivity, and public spaces: The library ensures fair access to computers for all patrons.

Fair access policies aim to remove barriers that would otherwise privilege some groups over others.
