What is Pro Fair Trade Finland?
Pro Fair Trade Finland is a politically and ideologically non-aligned NGO whose mission is to promote fair and ecologically sustainable world trade.
At the core of the activities of Pro Fair Trade Finland lie the local groups already operating in more than ten towns. Various civic activities include the arranging of study groups, tasting stalls and different campaigns, in addition to which Pro Fair Trade Finland has arranged concerts, photo exhibitions and seminars. Pro Fair Trade Finland also organises national training and cooperative events for its members and for anyone else who is interested.
Pro Fair Trade Finland cooperates closely with the Association for Promoting Fairtrade in Finland, and other current partners include SASK (Trade Union Solidarity Centre of Finland), Changemaker (youth network of FinnChurchAid FCA), Attac (the civic movement “Association for the Taxation of Financial Transactions to Aid Citizens”), Friends of the Earth Finland (Maan ystävät), Youth Academy (Nuorten Akatemia) and ViSiO (Green Study Centre).
