Fair
Trade is a market-based, entrepreneurial response to business as usual: it helps
third-word farmers developing direct market access as well as the organizational
and management capacity to add value to their products and take them directly
to the global market. Direct trade, a fair price, access to capital and local
capacity-building, which are the core strategies of this model, have been successfully
building farmers' incomes and self-reliance for more than 50 years.
