Unfair trade rules continue to lock millions of people in the developing world in poverty. Two billion people – a third of humanity – work hard to support themselves yet still struggle to survive on £1 per day or less. Through Fairtrade we are trying to help tip the balance in favour of poor farmers and workers. You can help by taking action in Fairtrade Fortnight (23 February – 8 March 2009) and throughout the year. In this guide you can read about the difference Fairtrade is making for producers and find out what you and your community can do to spread the benefits of Fairtrade to more people than ever.
