FAIRTRADE AND ORGANIC |
I come from a country in Africa listed as one among the poorest countries in Africa.
In the fact my country is rich but the wealth we have in the land we use it in a bad way! which is not clear that economic life among the citizens.
I really do not know much about fair trade in my country, because it was not until they realized that farmers were also badly in need to support their families and those cultured are often in difficult situation which they could not re-grow more. Fair trade makes a difference
Growers and producers in Kenya and Ethiopia think fair trade makes a difference and it's true. When you buy goods with fair trade, you have helped a lot. With the help of the future premium money they get, they hope to put the development of society. What is really needed.
Te In the Democratic Republic
Through the Fair trade premium, many cocoa farmers have opportunities to live in a good way. Cocoa growers in the Democratic Republic has had to fight for a normal life. 1988 was local initiative to change the situation. Then created CONACADO. (Confédération nationale de Cacaocultores Dominicano). Today, more than 9500 growers work in this Fair trade-certified organisation. But most of them don't own less than three hectares of land. |
