Fairtrade Fortnight is here once again, and over the next two weeks we will see Fairtrade getting a lot of media coverage.  Last year, our proudly-Fairtrade City of Waterford ‘went bananas’ and this year there will be a Mad Hatter’s Fairtrade Tea Party.  Young people seem to relate easily to Fairtrade, and not just because it’s about chocolate!  I think students are attracted to Fairtrade because they can see that their actions can make a difference: the simple act of buying a FT chocolate bar can have a real and positive impact on a cocoa producer in Africa.
