Introduction
Camden is a Fairtrade Borough and is participating in the London Fairtrade Campaign.
The Camden Fairtrade Network brings together agencies, community groups and individuals active in promoting Fairtrade around the borough.
It is run by a small group of committed volunteers who work together with other Camden residents, businesses, schools, universities, faith groups and other local organizations to increase understanding of Fairtrade and purchase of Fairtrade goods in Camden.
What is Fairtrade?
Fairtrade is about better and more stable prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world.
By requiring companies to pay above market prices, Fairtrade addresses the injustices of conventional trade, which traditionally discriminates against the poorest, weakest producers. It enables them to improve their lot and have more control over their lives.
