23/02/2009  Fairtrade Fortnight 2009

Two billion people - a third of humanity - still survive on less than $2 a day. Unfair trade rules keep them in poverty, but they face the global challenges of food shortages and climate change too. Fairtrade is a people's movement for change that aims to tip the balance of trade in favour of poor producers. We all need Fairtrade more than ever and we all have the power to create positive change for people and planet.

Take part in Fairtrade Fortnight 2009 and play your part by joining a powerful global movement for change!
