Episode #24: Fairtrade works because it’s trade, not aid

Two billion people rely on agriculture for their livelihoods, with some cocoa farmers living on fewer than 70 cents a day. Amcor’s David Clark and Fairtrade UK’s Catherine David talk about how the Fairtrade Foundation builds more sustainable supply chains that are economically secure, fairly paid, and more dignified for people in them. They also talk about how products are certified by Fairtrade and how packaging plays a role.
