FAIR TRADE DAY CELEBRATION
Fair Trade Lebanon, a Lebanese NGO established since more than 10 years and member of the World Fair Trade Organization, invites you to support its Fair Trade* cause by attending its annual World Fair Trade Day (WFTD) celebration, taking place at St George's convent in Roumiyeh, Qleyat, on Sunday 21st of May from 12 PM until 5 PM.
Our Fair Trade Day celebration is a rural and authentic outdoor lunch organized by Fair Trade Lebanon with the support of the US Middle-East Partnership Initiative (MEPI).
By attending this event, you will be:
• Supporting Fair Trade, a trading system which aims to reduce poverty in Lebanon and fight against the country's increasing rural exodus.
• Meeting more than 150 women producers who are actively involved in the Fair Trade movement.
• Tasting the richness of the Lebanese rural cuisine with an open buffet made by Fair Trade Lebanon's partner cooperatives.
• Enjoying a family day out doing fun activities, in the beautiful mountains and away from the city.
This awareness-raising day for the principles of Fair Trade is part of a worldwide campaign relayed by fair trade actors from more than 80 countries.
