Episode description

No market is perfect, and when it comes to the international food trade, any well considered examination must conclude that it is not equitable, even when examined under the most free market ethos.

We can either rail against these iniquities, or we can do something about it. In this month's podcast we're going to talk about an organisation that is doing something about, and enables us to do something, about it too.

I met Joanna Fianu when she came over to Hull to talk about both Fairtrade and some of her own projects. She was an inspiration, as is the work Fairtrade do- it's one of the oldest and most effective accreditation schemes of it's kind.

So, on the its 30th aniversary year I invited Joanne to talk to us about the scheme, and to share a personal story of how she used Fairtrade to launch one of her one projects
