Fair trade is an organized Social Movement which promotes standards for international Labor, ervironmentalism and social policy in areas related to production of Fairtrade labeled and unlabelled goods. The movement focuses in particular on exports from developing countries to developed countries.
Fair trade's strategic intent is to deliberately work with marginalised producers and workers in order to help them move from a position of vulnerability to security and economic self-sufficiency. It also aims at empowering them to become stakeholders in their own organizations and actively play a wider role in the global arena to achieve greater equity in international trade.
Fair trade proponents include a wide array of international religious, development aid, social and environmental organizations such as Oxfam, Amnesty International, and Caritas International.

it's cool discription to make people understand about this project. thanks Monir Vai.
Nice straight forward terms & conditions though it's not clear to me that how it would be possible to participate, suppose, in the mid level of our business from BD. what'll the member structure in BD?...
Thanks anyway.
All the best!
Our platform is 'From Bangladesh to the world', though we are initiating from UK. We need a good base in BD. we can follow the same terms and condition in BD, or we can restructure it based on economic structure. Need discussion on it.
Great work.
