Fair Trade Movement
The Fair Trade Movement is a social and economic initiative aimed at promoting equitable trading conditions for producers in developing countries. It focuses on ensuring that farmers and workers receive fair wages, work in safe conditions, and have access to sustainable practices. This movement often supports products like coffee, chocolate, and handicrafts, which are certified as fair trade.
By purchasing fair trade products, consumers contribute to a more just global economy. The movement encourages transparency in the supply chain and fosters direct relationships between producers and consumers. Organizations like the Fair Trade Federation and World Fair Organization play key roles in certifying and promoting fair trade practices.
