Exhibition "The Contribution of Ethical Finance and Fair Trade to the SDGs" at the Catalunya campus CRAI
From to
The Coordi - Fair Trade and Ethical Finance - propose the exhibition "The Contribution of Ethical Finance and Fair Trade to the SDGs" to bring us closer to fair trade on the occasion of World Fair Trade Day, May 10.
World Fair Trade Day is celebrated worldwide on the second Saturday of May and its purpose is to highlight the contributions to the fight against poverty, exploitation and climate change through fair trade. To make known that another economy is possible, where people and the planet are ahead of economic profit. The fair trade movement ensures that workers around the world are treated fairly with decent wages and working conditions.
The exhibition, organized by the Office of Equality and Social Commitment, shows, on the one hand, the link between Ethical Finance and Fair Trade, and their contribution to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. On the other hand, it tells the life stories of people from the Global South who have received microcredits granted by Oikocredit partner organizations. The majority of these people are women, and their experiences are inspiring cases of female empowerment.
