What is Fair Trade?
Fair Trade is a new model of international trade that provides a clear and just alternative to the free trade system.
Why Fair Trade?
Through our purchases of Fair Trade items we:
- Exalt the HUMAN DIGNITY of small-scale producers overseas;
- Exercise a preferential OPTION FOR THE POOR;
- Act in GLOBAL SOLIDARITY with our brothers and sisters in need;
- Ensure that workers, farmers and artisans earn a JUST WAGE;
