Fairtrade continues to raise its profile across the UK. In the case of the University of Bradford (home of the Fair Tracing project’s principal investigator Dr Apurba Kundu), an institution-wide Fairtrade status was acheived in December 2006 by making more ethically-sound food and drink choices available for its staff and students.
This year, the University of Bradford is holding a “Fairtrade Fortnight” beginning from 25 February to 7 March that will include a public debate on “Fairtrade and Trade Justice”, a screening of the documentary “Coca Cola: Drinking the World Dry”, a presentation of the play “Dreams of an African Child”, storytelling events and special Chololate and Nut days.
