Abstract:
In this dossier various aspects of fair trade are dealt with. First, in brief, an outline is presented what fair trade is usually associated with. Further, KIT’s focus on influencing the mainstream market by promoting business partnerships between conventional companies and small-scale suppliers in developing countries is explained. Fair trade organizations involved in labelling and certification can be found in the overview of websites. Under 'Resources' a selection of publications on fair trade related themes from KIT Library is presented. How fair trade works in practice is illustrated by real life cases from Fair Trade Original and Max Havelaar, based in The Netherlands.
