Fair Trade

We wanted to let all of you know about an awesome conference, Trade Action Camp, happening at the University of Central Florida March 27-28.  Trade Action Camp is a national conference of students activists and interested individuals who work on issues of fair trade and trade justice. It is being organized by two national student organizations: The United Students for Fair Trade and The Student Trade Justice Campaign.

You can find out more at www.tradeactioncamp.com and the event's Facebook page.

This event is an opportunity for students, producers, educators, vendors, and other players in the Trade Justice movement to come together and share knowledge, experiences, and ideas. This year’s Convergence will have a strong focus on addressing the most current and pressing global crises and mobilizing the responses to these crises to implement solutions—both the Economic and Climate Crisis movement as a whole and the student movement in particular. The concept behind “Trade Action Camp” is to inspire student activists to challenge the Trade Justice movement to continue evolving by creating new goals and new interpretations of what Trade Justice is and should be.

If you want to spread the word, here's a flyer you can post around campus!
