Martin Luther King once said….
In the morning we
drink coffee provided
for us by a South
American, or tea by a
Chinese, or cocoa by a
west African. Before we
leave for our jobs we’re
already indebted to
more than half the
world.
One pair of jeans is usually made in
more than 10 different countries eg
• using cotton for denim from
Benin,
• copper for rivets from Namibia,
• cotton for pockets from Pakistan,
• wire for zips from Japan,
• pumice for treating denim from
turkey,
• labour for sewing jeans in
Tunisia.
1.3 billion people live on less
than 70p per day.
World trade has been
expanding rapidly for the
benefit of richer countries like
ours, but poorer countries gain
less and less- yet the majority
of people live in the developing
world.
All these products reach our
homes as a result of trade.
Trade between countries is essential in the modern
world. We rely on trade with many different
countries for key foods, such as sugar, tea, coffee,
cocoa. We are interdependent on each other.
But
Trade hasn’t always been fair and people have suffered
as a result.
Problems faced by developing
countries farmers.
ï‚— Low prices and lack of support from government ( it often
costs more to produce than what they receive)
ï‚— low safety standards
ï‚— Debts ( producers have no choice but to borrow money)
ï‚— Poor diet, health care and education ( children often have to
work to support families)
ï‚— Lack of control ( producers feel powerless as world markets
control prices
F tradefortnight2015
Is there an alternative?
ï‚— Fortunately as you saw in the video Fair Trade means
that there is another option
ï‚— Fair trade means paying producers a fair price for what
they produce.
ï‚— we can recognise these fair trade produce by the
quality mark. There are now over 4500 items which
carry the mark.
F tradefortnight2015
What differences does it
make?
ï‚— guaranteed better prices which enable producers to
improve the quality of their life.
ï‚— Improved safety standards
ï‚— Improved environmental standards
ï‚— secure contracts so the producers have to borrow less.
ï‚— Regular income to help improve diet, health care and
education.
ï‚— Producers have more say and more control over their lives.
These are just some of the products
with the FAIRTRADE Mark
ï‚— All over the developing world small farmers were
suffering, which is why they need Fairtrade to protect
their livelihoods. There are now over 4,500 products
and 7 million farmers and their families have
benefitted from Fairtrade. But it’s not enough. We
need more people to choose Fairtrade so that more
shops will stock Fairtrade products and benefit more
farmers
What we can do.
ï‚— Together we can make a real difference to the lives
of the producers by buying fair trade products.
We can recognise these products by the quality
sign.
ï‚— An average 16 year old in Britain will spend
£1,000,000 during his/her lifetime. Their choices
count.
ï‚— Every time you go shopping the choices your
family makes can have a real impact on
others.
ï‚— The message is simple. Think before you buy.
Tuck Shop
ï‚— This academic year you have purchased
over £3000 of Fair Trade products.
ï‚— This means that you have helped the
lives of hundreds of people.
Its not about charity!
Its about making the world a
fairer place to live!
A better place to live!
This week we are holding these special assemblies
to promote fair trade and we are also holding a tea
and coffee afternoon for parents, this Thursday 2pm
During the coffee afternoon they can buy fair trade
products and learn about fair trade as well as
enjoying a drink and a biscuit.
Please tell your parents about this and persuade
them to come.
We will also have our usual tuck shop on Friday.

  • 2. Martin Luther King once said…. In the morning we drink coffee provided for us by a South American, or tea by a Chinese, or cocoa by a west African. Before we leave for our jobs we’re already indebted to more than half the world.
  • 3. One pair of jeans is usually made in more than 10 different countries eg • using cotton for denim from Benin, • copper for rivets from Namibia, • cotton for pockets from Pakistan, • wire for zips from Japan, • pumice for treating denim from turkey, • labour for sewing jeans in Tunisia.
  • 4. 1.3 billion people live on less than 70p per day. World trade has been expanding rapidly for the benefit of richer countries like ours, but poorer countries gain less and less- yet the majority of people live in the developing world.
  • 5. All these products reach our homes as a result of trade.

We need more people to choose Fairtrade so that more shops will stock Fairtrade products and benefit more farmers
  • 14. What we can do. ï‚— Together we can make a real difference to the lives of the producers by buying fair trade products. We can recognise these products by the quality sign. ï‚— An average 16 year old in Britain will spend £1,000,000 during his/her lifetime. Their choices count. ï‚— Every time you go shopping the choices your family makes can have a real impact on others. ï‚— The message is simple. Think before you buy.
  • 15. Tuck Shop ï‚— This academic year you have purchased over £3000 of Fair Trade products. ï‚— This means that you have helped the lives of hundreds of people.
  • 16. Its not about charity! Its about making the world a fairer place to live! A better place to live!
  • 17. This week we are holding these special assemblies to promote fair trade and we are also holding a tea and coffee afternoon for parents, this Thursday 2pm During the coffee afternoon they can buy fair trade products and learn about fair trade as well as enjoying a drink and a biscuit. Please tell your parents about this and persuade them to come. We will also have our usual tuck shop on Friday.

Editor's Notes

  • #6: All these products reach our homes as a result of trade.
