'It’s not fair!' Exploring social justice through Fairtrade with younger children April 2015

Aims: To explore the challenges of global education with younger children To introduce the World from our Doorstep project To explore what Fairtrade means, and how it can contribute to geography learning in early years and KS1 To experience some practical activities exploring fairness in a global context To meet 'Fairtrade Thea'

Overview of FAIRTRADE Fairtrade works to benefit small-scale farmers and workers through trade rather than aid. Development of thriving farming and worker communities that have more control over their futures and protecting the environment in which they live and work. The Mark means that the Fairtrade ingredients in the product have been produced by small-scale farmer organisations or plantations that meet Fairtrade social, economic and environmental standards.

FAIRTRADE means:  Farmers receive a fair and stable price for their products  Producers groups receive a premium to invest in improving their communities and businesses  Greater respect for the environment  Small farmers have a stronger position in world markets  A closer link between shoppers and producers

Challenges: Big complex ideas - how to explore them without over- simplifying Making it real - "glocal", exploring global learning themes through local activities and examples Relevant - thinking about the food in our cupboards, supermarkets, where it's from, what is the journey from field to plate Make it fun! Experiential, participatory, creativity, games, stories, toys Deep learning through dialogue (question & enquiry, P4C, Sustained Shared Thinking)

The World from our Doorstep Project Aim – to raise the awareness and change the attitudes of young children towards development issues, and ensure they can take action to support sustainable ways of living Project themes – the concept of interconnectedness (local-global links), sustainability, and fairness (through Fairtrade) Participants – infant teachers, pre-school practitioners, teaching assistants and other adult helpers Methodologies and approaches – stories and artefacts, games, enabling critical thinking (P4C, Sustained Shared Thinking), links with local and international food producers and craftspeople
