Plenary Session and Workshops: Joining Forces for Global Change

To bring this 19th edition of the International Fair Trade Towns Conference to a spectacular close, the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) is hosting a day of lively discussions and workshops. The morning begins with powerful speeches on the state of global solidarity, delivered notably by Felix Tetteh, a young Ghanaian cocoa producer, and activist Anuna De Wever. This is followed by numerous optional workshop sessions: interactive theater on the cocoa supply chain, a debate on youth involvement in the movement, and a discussion on the central role of women in fair trade. A unique opportunity to gain new insights and build global synergies for fairer world.
