World Fair Trade Day!

Dia Mundial del Comercio Justo!

Saturday, May 8, 2010 / Sabado, Mayo 8, 2010

Fair Trade Colombia is a proud participant in World Fair Trade Day, an international celebration of Fair Trade. This year’s events will be taking place in over 80 countries worldwide. The theme of this year’s World Fair Trade Day, Fair Trade My Home, reminds us to purchase and use Fair Trade items as part of our routine lives. Commit to expanding your use of Fair Trade soap, sugar, clothes, toys, coffee, chocolate, baskets, picture frames, bananas, rice, tea, soccer balls, flowers, wine and more!  High quality, Fair Trade products are available for every room in your home. When we expand Fair Trade at home, we not only support the people who make the items we consume and enjoy, we also support the environment, women’s rights, children’s rights, cultural dignity and peace building. That’s a powerful thing to do by committing to use Fair Trade items at home.

We invite you to participate in our World Fair Trade Day events on May 8^th - including a Product Fair and Fair Trade Education Day Event in Toronto (see our Events page for more details), a series of educational conferences with our producers in Colombia in partnership with “Tiendas de Paz” and many more activities organized to promote Fair Trade and campaign for trade justice together with farmers and artisans around the world.

For more information on World Fair Trade Day and to see the winners of the "Fair Trade My Home Contest" please visit Fair Trade Resource Network (www.ftrn.org) who is coordinating activities in North America.
