June, 2007: Fair Trade Federation Conference

For more than twenty years, the Fair Trade Federation has brought together leaders in the field of fair trade and social enterprise to advance the fair trade movement and to provide practical, skill-building workshops. From June 1-3, 2007, this year’s conference, Changing Hands: The Work of Fair Trade, brought together more than 130 FTF members, partners, and friends with a hand in positively changing the lives of those living in poverty. Our own Tex Dworkin chaired a panel discussion entitled “Putting Web Technology to Use.” Overall, conference attendees left the weekend inspired and ready to take Fair Trade to the next level.
