FACE is the European Federation for Hunting and Conservation, representing the interests of Europe's 7 million hunters. Established in 1977, it is the largest democratically representative body for hunters in the world and one of the largest European civil society organizations. The organization upholds the principle of sustainable use and works closely with its members, national hunters' associations from 37 European countries, to promote hunting across Europe.

FACE is an evidence-based organization, providing technical expertise to both hunters and policymakers. Based in Brussels, the FACE Secretariat serves as a central information point for hunters and policymakers. The team combines a passion for hunting and conservation with expertise in key areas to ensure that hunting is facilitated and sustainable across Europe.

With a history dating back over 40 years, FACE has been instrumental in integrating the knowledge and experience of European hunters into the EU decision-making process. The organization's governance is rooted in democratic principles, ensuring balanced representation and solidarity among its members. Through cost-effective support and transparent financial management, FACE delivers maximum impact with limited expenditure.

The organization also receives funding from the European Commission's Directorate Environment through the LIFE NGO Funding program. Committed to transparency, FACE is registered with the EU Transparency Register and operates in accordance with a Code of Conduct in its relations with EU institutions.
