February Theme: Fairtrade

Who wins and who loses in the world’s food market?

Use our February monthly theme to help pupils explore fair trade, and be inspired to take action as active Global Citizens. Use the resources to explore the relationships between farmers, businesses and consumers and discuss how we can make food trade fair, and who is responsible.

You will find:

  • a presentation to introduce the subject of fairtrade as a much needed idea in a world of unfair trade rules
  • a lesson plan helping pupils to explore the relationships between farmers, businesses and shoppers as via a simulation game based on the banana industry
  • a guide for young people to take their own action (also found on our youth blog site)

More activities about fairtrade to use with young people.

Find out more about other monthly themes in our new Calendar of Action and Learning!
