New Strategy for Fairtrade

Today Fairtrade represents over 1.65 million small-scale farmers and workers. Producers co-own the Fairtrade system, shaping global strategy and running operations across three continents.

Earlier this year, we launched our 5-year global strategy, 'Changing Trade, Changing Lives.' It sets out a vision on how fairer trade can make meaningful contributions to global problems.

See how we plan to continue Fairtrade's work and make important contributions to the Global Goals for Sustainable Development.

Gender inequality is often seen as a women’s issue. Wrong! Gender is not about women - it’s about power balances between men and women, and relationships which are free from prejudice.

Tsitsi Choruma, COO at Fairtrade Africa and Senior Advisor on Gender, explains in her opinion piece how Fairtrade works with farmers and workers towards achieving gender equality in agriculture.

Fairtrade has refreshed our existing gender strategy and set a clear direction and approach for Fairtrade’s global work on gender for 2016-2020.
