Examens d'admission en MP2 (MP post CFC) EXEMPLE pour 2015 Anglais 1/7 DGES II – Direction générale – Ecole de commerce GEFG What is Fair Trade ? This week is Fair Trade Fortnight in the UK and World Fair Trade Day is in May. Maybe you buy products with a Fair Trade label or from a Fair Trade shop. But what does ‘Fair Trade’ mean and how and when did this movement start? The Fair Trade movement is about 60 years old. It started with NGOs buying handicrafts from developing countries. This was useful extra money for women who often had no other way of making money. Food products were next, and now there are thousands of fairly-traded products including clothing, flowers and even footballs. Thousands of Fair Trade shops and supermarkets around the world now sell these goods and there are more than 1 million small-scale producers and workers in over 50 countries in developing countries involved in Fair Trade. Coffee is the best-known Fair Trade product and, after oil, it is the world’s most valuable product on the world market. It is difficult for small-scale farmers to reach international markets. They cannot control the price for their produce as the buyers decide this. However, when prices fall, coffee growers can get less money for their coffee than it cost them to grow it. Fair Trade guarantees a minimum price so that farmers know how much they will get for their produce and can plan for the future. All Fair Trade organisations try to reduce poverty through trade for small-scale producers. The key guarantees are that the farmers will get a fair price which the producers are happy with. If the price falls in the international market, the producers will still get the guaranteed price. They also have a long-term agreement with the buyers, so they don’t need to worry if they will sell their produce or not. Another guarantee is that they will have safe and healthy working conditions and equal pay for men and women. They usually receive some extra money to help the local community and they can spend this on anything that will help the community, such as health or education. For example, they might decide to build a well for the village or a nursery school. Fair Trade products sometimes cost a bit more, but consumers worldwide spent £1.6 billion on Fair Trade products in 2007 and this is growing every year, so many people are happy to pay a little extra to help the millions of people who depend on smallscale farming for their food and wages.
