Farming is the largest employer in the world but millions of people who live and work on smallholder farms don’t earn enough to provide for either themselves or their families. It’s often these communities who are most affected by climate change despite having done the least to contribute to it.
Fair Trade is a global movement that puts people and the planet before profit. When producers receive a fair price for their goods it leads to an improved working environment and a better quality of life for them and their families.
Fair Trade takes a holistic approach by connecting producers and consumers through making supply chains more transparent and providing better choices for shopping responsibly.
Fairtrade Fortnight takes place from Monday 9 September to Sunday 22 September 2024. This year’s campaign is urging everyone to ‘Be The Change’, by picking up Fairtrade products and speaking up for fairer trade.
