Key Points We are connected with people around the world through the things we buy and eat. Many products in our shops are made from raw materials imported from LEDC’s eg: Africa, Asia and the Caribbean. Many workers do not earn enough to meet their basic needs: food, shelter, clothes, medicine and schooling. This is unfair. Fairtrade labelling has been introduced so shoppers can guaranteed that workers get a fair deal for their products.

Homework (To bring to the lesson next Friday) Log on to the Fairtrade website: and choose one product produced through the Fairtrade system. Which country does it come from? How much is it to buy? Where does this money go? Why is Fairtrade involved and how is it helping?
