#AfricanLivesMatter If you want to know that amounts being thrown around by Ministers of Finance are small,please divide these by the size of your national population.If they say $5 billion& you're 50 million in a country ,divide 5bn by 50 million. Discount what they will chop
In gender equality checking the box of a standard is easy, but living and believing in true equality in agriculture requires a strong comitment and a real desire to listen to women and hear their stories. @NappFairtrade
@Wangeci_FTA This is the reason why we need consumption to align with Sustainable pricing. $1 per pound of coffee will not change living conditions of farmers.
An understanding of the Fairtrade-system is key in appreciating the benefits for all along the value chain. From better prices, decent working conditions and fair terms of trade. @tsitsichoruma
South Africa is the largest producer of Fairtrade wine globally, with 24 producer organisations, and accounts for around two- thirds of Fairtrade wine sales.
