Fair trade

The White Freedom Ribbon Campaign

• is an open platform. We gather knowledge and information from organisations on the topic of our 'one world'.
• addresses young people. School children are our main target group. We hope to interest teachers in the topic of 'one world' so that they will introduce it into their lesson plans.
• initiates action. Learning leads to action – action stimulates learning.
• supports the commitment of volunteers. Pupils get to know the work of the organisations and can play a part in these efforts.
• is independent. We are not affiliated with any ideology or political party. Thanks to our journalistic orientation, we are committed to providing an unbiased information platform.

The White Freedom Ribbon Campaign was founded in February 2003 against the backdrop of the impending war in Iraq. With our initiative, we as journalists hope to expand the perspectives of young people.

With the sales of fairly traded goods we would like to draw the attention to unfair world market structures and create an alternative to customary commercial methods.We are an honorary team and see the world store as a learning place which is also open to interested new employees. We organize school class visits for fair trade, products and their producers and we also organize informational events on global subjects. We are acknowledged as an application place for the federal Voluntary Service.
