Fairtrade Evening at Downend Library

There’s an opportunity to learn more about the Fairtrade movement, when a producer from Nicaragua visits Downend Library as part of a programme to celebrate Bristol’s 20 year link with the municipality of Puerto Morazan.  Sesame seed grower Sandra Rojas will talk about her life as a Fairtrade farmer and how, through choosing the movement’s products, we can do something to help support the life and work of her community.  Fairtrade’s focus is on helping farmers and workers improve the quality of their lives and take more control over their futures. The scheme aims to tackle poverty and empower producers in developing countries.   So why not come along to Downend Library at 7.30pm on Thursday 23 February and find out about the Fairtrade Foundation and its vital role in the developing world? There will also be the opportunity to try a variety of Fairtrade products. Tickets cost £2.50 and are available from any South Gloucestershire library.
