Have you ever heard of “Fair Trade”?
Fair Trade is a trading approach that provides producers with fair compensation, supporting their well-being and self-reliance.
This time, we’re excited to welcome Ms. Hiromi Suzuki, Public Relations and Education Officer at People Tree, a leading Fair Trade brand, as our guest speaker.
Fair Trade is a powerful way to consciously make ethical consumer choices — bringing happiness to you and others who share the planet’s resources equally.
Would you like to learn how your everyday choices can contribute to a fairer and more sustainable world?
At the event, you can deepen your understanding through experiencing fair trade products (including tastings) and engaging in discussions with other participants.
Whether you’re passionate about sustainability or learning about Fair Trade for the first time,
-everyone is welcome!
We look forward to your application!
