Fair trade site


Fair trade is a commercial partnership which aim is to contribute helping developing countries and fighting against poverty by buying products which are participating to this trade.It is a way to developp the autonomy of workers and help producers which are handicapped by the system of the conventional trade.
This partenariat follows several principles such as equality between men and women, prohibition of children's labour and environmental respect.

Buying fair trade certified products helps make the word a better place by paying farmers and workers in developing countries a fair price.

This trade is influencing the business in a way that people are more aware of the problem of inequality and they tend to become more and more ethical in their consumption.They realize the danger that our planet incurred if we don't do anything to change the things and become righter.The first step is to become first an ethical consumer which means changing our habbits by buying positively supporting ethical products, fair trade, recycled products and local production.
Ethical consumption means moral behavior by consuming only what is ethically made without human exploitation, without experiments on live animals and by respecting our environment.

Ethical consumption stresses the role of the consumer by giving him the power of his purchases and at the same time making him realize that he can be a direct actor and have an impact on the economy and help contribute to the safety of our planet.In that way it contributes to influence the business because people who are purchasing goods pay attention now of what they buy and if it in an ethical way.

This mode of consumption is part of the different means of prevention that could help save our planet or at least delay its destruction and it makes people think about human values.
