Going Bananas!  All of you should be able to explain what Fairtrade is.  Most of you should be able to give reasons for buying Fairtrade goods.  Some of you should be able to discuss the issues surrounding Fairtrade farmers.

 Have you ever seen this symbol?  Where?  Do you know what it represents? Think for 60 seconds, then share your answers with the person sitting next to you.

 some people see a parrot.  others a green leaf.  some see the black swirl at the centre as a road leading to a brighter future. There are different interpretations of the Fair trade symbol

 The most popular interpretation is to imagine the blue as the sky, the green as the grass, and the black dot and swirl at the centre as a person holding one arm up in the air.  That figure represents the people at the heart of the Fairtrade system – it could be a farmer holding up their product, a shopper reaching to purchase, or a campaigner fighting for greater justice in international trade.

 What problem do farmers in poorer countries face, that Fairtrade aims to solve?  Fluctuating (changing) prices that may not even cover the costs of producing the crops.  What is the Fairtrade promise? Fairtrade promises a stable price and a long-term trading relationship, guaranteeing producers a better deal.

Organic food is food that has been produced to strict standards that keep its production more 'natural'. What does organic mean?

 Produce a poster explaining why people should buy Fairtrade products. Your task:
