Trade tensions have highlighted the importance of fair trade considerations and how benefits of global value chains are shared.
This lunch-time event will provide participants the opportunity to network and to debate value chains management and how to make them more equitable, inclusive and sustainable.
The event is organized in partnership with the Fair Trade Advocacy Office, a joint initiative of Fairtrade International and the World Fair Trade Organization, who will also present its new report “New business models to put people and planet first”.
