Even though it is near the end of Fair Trade Fortnight (1 - 16 May 2010) it's always a good time to check out what it is about and support Fair Trade. This year's Fair Trade Fortnight Trade Aid is highlighting the positive impact fair trade has on women working in developing countries with the theme for the fortnight being “'Just Women - justice for women by women”.
During Fair Trade Fortnight Trade Aid shops around the country will be:
•running in-store celebrations—product sampling, coffee mornings and more...
•holding community events and talks (request a speaker from your local shop during The Fortnight)
•hosting our Nepalese trading partner, Meera Bhattarai - a leader of the fair trade movement in Nepal, as she tours New Zealand.
Check the activities and events that are happening here: (more events will be added throughout April so check back or talk to your local Trade Aid shop about getting involved). http://www.tradeaid.org.nz/index.php/pi_pageid/78
