We recognise and support the new International Fair Trade Charter

Supporters of the charter share a vision of a world in which everyone, through their work, can maintain a decent and dignified livelihood and develop their full human potential.

The Charter

The International Fair Trade Charter launched in September 2018 by the World Fair Trade Organisation and Fairtrade International. The aim of the International Fair Trade Charter is to help the Fair Trade movement present its common vision to the wider world.
