Fair trade connects thousands of remote artisans and farmers from the farthest reaches of Central America, Western Africa and beyond, to the global marketplace, with the goal of improving a community's financial livelihood and educational prospects. How did the movement start and what has its impact been? What is the process for certification? How do companies find these remote farmers and artisans, who live where few travel? Take a deeper dive into the world of fair trade beyond the certification sticker. Meet with local purveyors dedicated to the fair trade mission and hear the unique stories behind your favorite coffee, chocolate and clothing brands.
Light refreshments will be provided.
