You may or may not have heard of the Fair Trade concept but, put simply, it's about moving away from the slave mentality that so many businesses are happy to live with where producers do not even get paid enough to provide basics such as proper food, clothing and education while the Western purchasers make a fine profit.
While many people appear to see Fair Trade as a gimmick or a cult and therefore as a strange optional sideline of society it must be said that the concept of Fair Trade should be globally and thoroughly applied to all working situations and not just to a lucky few: it should be the worldwide minimum standard and anyone who disagrees is obviously not interested in civilisation.
Please take the time to type the words "Fair Trade" into a search engine and find out more.
Give them what you would want.
