Sensibilisation sur le Commerce Equitable à Tyr

Le 10 mai 2017 dans le cadre du Défi Lecture organisé à Tyr par l’Institut Français et rassemblant pour l’occasion 5 écoles primaires de la région, une centaine d’élèves a participé à une session de sensibilisation sur le commerce équitable donnée par Fair Trade Lebanon. 

Cette opération ludique et pédagogique menée en partenariat avec le magazine jeunesse francophone «Gwinie» a permis de faire passer un message sur l’importance de faire émerger un commerce plus juste auprès des enfants présents.
