What is the resource about?
A great example of fair trade approach is the Max-Eyth vocational school, which hosted a fair trade themed event in collaboration with the city-s Fair Trade initiative. The event featured a range of interactive activities and discussions highlighting the benefits of fair trade and exploring how it can be integrated into school operations and curricula. By welcoming the initiative onto school grounds, the event sparked new ideas, forged partnerships, and encouraged both staff and students to think critically about global responsibility right in their own community.
