DESCRIPTION:The School of Environment\, Education and Development Annual 
 Social Responsibility Lecture\n\nFairtrade is celebrating its 30th anniv
 ersary in the UK. When consumers buy Fairtrade labelled goods\, they are
  supporting farmers and workers to improve their living standards\, inve
 st in their communities and businesses\, and protect the shared environm
 ent. This is achieved by paying fair prices and upholding fair productio
 n standards and practices across global supply chains for tea\, coffee\,
  chocolate\, and many more products.\n\nFrom small beginnings\, Fairtrad
 e is now an international movement working in partnership with 2 million
  farmers and workers across 70 countries. The University of Manchester i
 s a Fairtrade University: it supports a vision of a world in which all p
 roducers enjoy secure and sustainable livelihoods\, fulfil their potenti
 al\, and have control over their future.\n\nJoin us for an event to cele
 brate Fairtrade’s 30th Anniversary. Four expert speakers will reflect on
  the achievements and challenges of the Fairtrade movement to date\, and
  discuss the future of the movement and how you can get involved. Fairtr
 ade refreshments will be served from 1pm in the foyer of Humanities Brid
 geford Street before the panel session begins.\n\nSpeakers:\n- Mike Gidn
