@Fairtrade Global CEO | “Fairtrade means a fairer future for farmers, a sustainable future for our planet, and a better future for all.” #TheClockIsTicking
📢 If you’re not convinced about closing the gender gap yet, hear this: If women farmers had the same access to resources as men, the number of people suffering from hunger in the world would be down by 150 million! Read our thread to know more! #futureisfair#SDG5
Everyone loves a good cup of coffee.
But if we don’t work towards an equitable future for coffee farmers, then the future of coffee itself is at risk.
The time to take action is now. #TheFutureIsFair
🗯 Despite higher global coffee prices recently, coffee farmers are still struggling with skyrocketing production costs and crop loss due to climate change. Many have left their farms, and young people don’t see a future in coffee.

Is there a future for coffee without a living income for farmers?
In 2022, together with farmers and experts, we developed the first Living Income Reference Price for organic Arabica coffee from Honduras, as part of our strategy to advocate for decent livelihoods for farmers.
To support companies in meeting due diligence duties, our Risk Map visualises the biggest human rights and environmental risks in specific products and countries.
Admitting these risks in supply chains is the 1st step to tackle them: https://t.co/GJPUBP5Nrp
Did you know?
50% of global coffee farming land is at risk due to climate change.
❗️Climate change is one of the biggest threats for coffee farmers around the world. Rapidly changing weather patterns and rising temperatures lead to plant diseases and vulnerable crops.
No more excuses.
No more greenwashing.
No more bottomless greed of the fossil fuel industry and its enablers.
2023 must be a year of game-changing #ClimateAction.
No words can fully convey the pain and sorrow of those impacted by the tragic earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria earlier this week.
Fairtrade joins the international community in expressing heartfelt condolences to all communities affected by this shocking destruction.
Who’s on the front line of climate change? Farmers.
With Fairtrade they invest in climate resilience, including tree planting.
Raising awareness is also key, and the aim of the “Plant for the Future” Tree Challenge, with 300,000+ trees planted!
