Description
Celebrate UWE Bristol's very own Fairtrade Fortnight by finding out about what lies behind the logo from a business in practice. Neutral® is a market leading producer of certified Fairtrade sustainable clothing and accessories. Come and hear from their representative why they choose Fairtrade, why it is good for business and for workers across the world. And where you can buy it on campus!
Plus there will be a short talk on how Fairtrade benefits women and what UWE Bristol is doing to support Fairtrade. No need to book - just turn up on the day. All students and staff welcome.
