How:
With 27 schools and 46 campuses designated Fair Trade, including one Gold and a growing number of Silver designations, Canada's education institutions are a critical element of civil society participation in the fair trade movement. This session is designed to encourage conversation among Fair Trade Campuses and Schools to learn about outreach and engagement work happening across Canada and to foster collaboration among education institutions. Following a brief presentation on the fundamentals of the Ladders of Engagement strategy, participants will be asked about their programs' initiatives, challenges and innovative approaches to strengthen the fair trade movement on campus and beyond.
