Today is the start of Fairtrade Fortnight: 21 February – 6 March 2022

What is Fairtrade Fortnight?

For two weeks each year, at the end of February and start of March, thousands of schools, colleges and universities across the UK come together to learn from the people who grow our food and drinks, mine our gold and who grow the cotton in our clothes – people who are often exploited and underpaid.

Through learning about how we are all connected through the things we eat, drink and wear, young people are equipped with the knowledge and skills to shape a more compassionate and sustainable world.

 This year the theme is:

Climate, Fairtrade and You

So, this Fairtrade Fortnight, we invite you to stand with farmers and workers seeking climate justice!

This week we will be sharing information and resources for you to look at and get involved at home and spreading the message to others.

 You can also get involved by visiting the Choose The World You Want Festival
