FAIRTRADE FORTNIGHT 2023 Fair Trade Fortnight 27th February - 12th March 2023 Let’s start with a question, what is Fairtrade? Fairtrade is a movement for change that works directly with businesses, consumers and campaigners to make trade deliver for farmers and workers. Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability and fair terms of trade farmers and workers developing the world. How does Fairtrade do this?
