Why does Fair Trade Mean?
“Fair Trade is a trading partnership, based on dialogue, transparency and respect, that seeks greater equity in international trade. It contributes to sustainable development by offering better trading conditions to, and securing the rights of, marginalized producers and workers – especially in the South.
Fair Trade Organisations have a clear commitment to Fair Trade as the principal core of their mission. They, backed by consumers, are engaged actively in supporting producers, awareness raising and in campaigning for changes in the rules and practice of conventional international trade.”
Globally recognised definition, as agreed by the main international Fair Trade networks (WFTO, Fairtrade International and European Fair Trade Association)
Fair Trade Organisations (also known as Fair Trade Enterprises) can be recognised by the WFTO Mark.
Fair Trade is more than just trading:
-
It is a vision of business and trade that put people and planet before profit
-
It fights poverty, climate change, gender inequality and injustice
-
Is a proof of concept that showcases the enterprise models of the new economy
