The 2017 celebration is the third in the series of ‘Be An Agent for Change’ campaign. Agents for Change across five continents will join hand in hand for Fair Trade and the Planet to celebrate World fair Trade Day on 13 May 2017.
ACRATH (Australian Catholic Religious Against Trafficking) collaborates to ensure slavery-free supply chains of goods, such as chocolate, cotton, clothing, electronic goods and seafood.This concerted campaign has had some significant successes. (From Human Trafficking and Slavery: A response from Australian Catholics by Christine Carolan and Noelene Simmons MS.)
ACRATH and CAFOD are organisations supported by Brigidine Sisters to promote Fairtrade.
