Grammar fix
equal opportunity
fair chance
A situation where everyone has the same chance to succeed, get a job, or access services, no matter their background, gender, or other personal characteristics.
Hear it in context
Notice where the phrase sounds natural.
The company is committed to providing equal opportunity to all employees, regardless of their background.
In my opinion, equal opportunity in education is essential for a fair society because it allows everyone to reach their potential.
Fix the pattern
One small grammar move makes it sound right.
Not: We believe in equal opportunities for all the people.
Say: We believe in equal opportunities for all. / in equal opportunity for everyone.
Drop the extra 'the people' — 'for all' or 'for everyone'.
Which sounds natural?
Tap the one a native speaker would say.
'Equal opportunity' is the standard term; 'parity of opportunity irrespective of background' is policy boilerplate.
