Fairtrade
Fair trade means more than fair prices. The fair trade movement takes a market-based approach towards empowering local producers. Fair trade organizations promote social justice through:
- fair payments to producers and employees
- anti child labour policies
- long-term trading relationships
- environmentally sustainable production methods
