Fair Trade Towns

Fair Trade Towns are communities committed to promoting fair trade principles. This means supporting products that ensure fair wages and good working conditions for producers, often in developing countries. To become a Fair Trade Town, a community typically meets criteria such as increasing awareness, having fair trade products available in shops and cafes, and encouraging local organizations and residents to choose fair trade options. The goal is to foster more equitable trading relationships, reduce exploitation, and support sustainable development worldwide through conscious consumption and community efforts.
