...Are you looking for Christmas gifts?

....Stay tuned!

Fair Trade Lebanon will be in two Christmas exhibitions in less than 15 days!

FTL at the school of Saint-Coeur Kfarhbab!

Fair Trade Lebanon gave two conferences to students (aging from 9 till 13 years old) at the school of Saint-Coeur Kfarhbab! Our conferences revolved around the theme of Lebanese food-processing cooperatives and Fair Trade as a means for rural development.

We've discussed in detail how cooperatives work: the  nature of their activity, the products they prepare, their location as well as their strengths and everyday challenges.

We've also introduced the principles of Fair Trade and the role that FTL plays as a link between small rural producers and consumers!

The audience was delighted! they are now eager to go visit and meet directly with the producers!



We will renew this experience real soon!

Our video: World Rural Woman's Day 2011

Fair Trade Lebanon has celebrated on Octobre 15th the World Rural Woman's Day at the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Agriculture of Zahle and the Bekaa. Our producers came together to discuss their experiences and promote their activities around the principles of Fair Trade.

This video reveals some precious testimonies!

A word of thank you goes to all of our partner producers who were present with us and showed a great deal of solidarity!

Thank You All!

Le Liban en France: very positive feedback

What an amazing feeling...to be there in Paris and feel the enthusiasm and nostalgia of people looking for their hometown specialties. We've sold our complete stock of products...we could've even sold the pictures that were decorating the stand! No I'm just kidding...I believe that what I want to say is that we would have definitely stayed longer if we could, and we would've loved to continue to tell our story and promote the work of our small fair trade producers. Their products were such a success that we came back home with an amazing dynamism.

We will keep going forward and bring you even better and more innovative products. Paris, we love you. And we will be back....

To all our supporters, all the new people we met and all the volunteers who gave us a hand and helped us through those 3 full days of exhibition: Thank you so much!
