Chicago is working towards becoming a city known for its Fair Trade values and practices. Help Fair Trade Chicago achieve these goals: "Bring fair trade items to your workplace, school, hair salon, lawyer's office, or congregation, and help us become a Fair Trade City.
Fair Trade Resolution for Chicago's City Council states that "the City must recognize the comprehensive labor conditions that may be supported by its actions, including a living wage, sustainable production practices and a work environment free from toxins; and Fair Trade certification is an innovative, market-based system that encourages family sustaining wages and a healthy and safe work environment by identifying food, beverage and handicrafts products that generate economic benefit to the producers of these products often farmers and artisan groups in developing countries."
The next Fair Trade meeting is this fall on Monday, September 21st from 6:00PM- 08:00PMIt would be a great opportunity to become better educated in Fair Trade, how Chicago is working towards its goals and how you can help.
