30 years after Fairtrade products first hit the shelves in the UK, this year’s Fairtrade Fortnight was an unforgettable success. Campaigners across the country united to Be the Change for fairer trade and spread awareness for the Fairtrade movement.
Fairtrade Foundation’s new campaign, ‘Be the Change’, highlights how consumer power can support farmers overseas to build stronger, more resilient communities.
The campaign, supported by Fairtrade’s celebrity patrons and ambassadors, highlights the stark reality that many non-Fairtrade farmers are facing, with households continuing to earn below the poverty line.
Fairtrade Fortnight 2024 will be moving to September as part of our year-long milestone celebrations.
Fairtrade Fortnight took place from 27 February to 12 March 2023.
From ferries to footballers, Fairtrade campaigners came together during Fairtrade Fortnight 2023. Here's just some of the amazing things they got up to.
