Koperattiva Kummerc Gust (KKG), the Maltese cooperative that runs L-Arka, the fair trade shop in Malta, will hold a series of events in early November as part of its 2002-2003 educational campaign promoting fair trade.

Taking part is Carol Wills, executive director of the International Federation of Alternative Trade, and Harini Nararayan, a producer within the Gandhi Rehabilitation Rural Centre.

KKG, together with partners like Traidcraft in Britain and CTM-Altromercato in Italy, is bound by the International Federation for Alternative Trade (IFAT) to trade in a manner that guarantees workers in Africa, Latin and Central America and Asia to earn a fair wage for their work and enough money to access basic health and education services.

KKG believes that fair trade and more sustainable development are possible when the right channels of communication are used in such a way that as many people as possible can have access to information that will help people make the right choices.

For further information about fair trade, contact KKG on tel. 2124 4865.
