FTLA’s own Emily Fernandez joined representatives from Fair Trade groups across the US this weekend in Media, PA. We’ll have more info on the celebration and work done soon. Here’s a sense for now of what they are up to:
Fair Trade Communities USA is a network of local, national, and international organizations who have joined together with the aim of growing the fair trade movement in the US. Following the example set by many of our friends in Europe, we strive to support local, grassroots groups in the US by offering the tools and support needed to carry out successful local campaigns for fair trade. We work to network these community groups, with the aim of making fair trade products the standard in the US, one community at a time.
