Fairly Educated Conference Committee 2016 - Deakin Geelong - Fair Trade Visionaries

The Fairly Educated Initative: 

Fairly Educated is a not-for profit initiative and network that aims to unite, combine and grow tertiary Fair Trade movements across the globe.  Fairly Educated is here to assist those of you who are in the process of seeking justice by promoting fair trade on campus, as well as providing resources and ideas for those of you who are thinking about beginning.  Fairly Educated provides a platform for the Fair Trade movement to share resources, ideas and experiences.  This is possible through online mediums and the annual conference held in a different city each year.

The Fairly Educated Initiative is NOT another Non-Government Organisation (NGO).  On the contrary, the Fairly Educated initiative aims to reinforce the work of existing NGO activist groups, such as Vision Generation (World Vision’s Youth), Oxfam, Oaktree and many more! By better equipping these groups with materials specific to getting universities providing fair trade products, their campaigns can be even more successful.

Therefore Fairly Educated is here to reinforce the fantastic existing work of NGOs, as opposed to trying to compete or replace them.  Fairly Educated looks to partner with other not for profit entities in the crucial role getting more fair trade products sold on university campuses around the world.

If you are an organisation, business or individual that would like to be involved in fair trade campaigns on campuses anywhere
