Fairtrade Fortnight

Posted on:

This month we are celebrating Fairtrade Fortnight.

Fairtrade has a vision of a world in which all producers enjoy secure and sustainable livelihoods, fulfil their potential, and decide on their future. Fairtrade works with farmers and workers in more than 1,900 producer organisations, across 68 countries, so they can improve their living standards, invest in their communities and businesses, and protect our shared environment.

They achieve this by rallying a global community of millions – farmers and workers, supply chain partners, brands, retailers, shoppers, schools, government – to pay fair prices and uphold fair production standards and practices.

Ways you can support Fairtrade:

1. Choose Fairtrade goods when you shop and encourage others to do the same

2. Donate to Fairtrade

3. Ask your MP to support Fairtrade

4. Organise or join a campaign event
