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’s theme is ‘Choose the World You Want’, meaning that we must make the right choices that have positive outcomes for people around the world. If you’d like to find out more information about Fairtrade Fortnight, below is a document full of activities you can do at home!
