Materialism and Fairtrade
New Internationalist shares with the global Fair Trade movement a vision of the world in which
global justice and sustainable development are at the heart of trade structures and practices. If you share that vision we'd be delighted if you would
become an active supporter of our advocacy work.
Ethical gifts as consumer advocacy
New Internationalist offers a range of
ethical gifts that deliver sustainable livelihoods to small producers in the poorest countries of the world. An ethical gift not only supports human dignity in the Majority World, it also makes a statement for
consumer advocacy in our own society.
What is Advocacy?
At any time, thousands of individuals, NGOs and non profit organisations participate in and influence decision-making at all levels of government. A core component of our
democratic society is the right to advocate for change on behalf of someone or an issue that promotes a
just society - a fair society for all people.
