Why teach about fair trade?
Through learning about fair trade products and producers, pupils can gain an understanding of where their food has come from and how it’s grown.They can learn about basic needs and human rights, and discuss what it means for workers to be justly treated and get a decent wage and a fair price for their products.They can discover how we are connected to the people who grow, harvest and sell different products around the world, and explore how what we buy has an impact all along the supply chain.
