I took some time out during yesterday afternoon’s unconference sessions to check in with some of my Twitter followers and get their take on what Fairtrade has come to mean to them and why.
I asked “What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the term Fair Trade?” and here are the responses I got:
- workers/producers wages and conditions
- coffee, chocolate & bananas
- Fair Trade Coffee
- not a great flavour with the stuff I have tried so far but love the cause regardless
- Coffee! I know it’s so much bigger and more diverse than that, but it’s the first thing that popped into my head
- Fair Trade = hope for an alternative way of living and engaging with the world
I continued the interview onwards with a couple of people with interesting results. Click on the image to view full size, read from the bottom in each case and feel free to continue the conversation in the comments:
