  1. Who in the World...?

  2. Kasinthula Cane Growers, Malawi Sugar “The fair trade programme is doing good things here. The village where I live has one borehole and is to receive electricity. It is very exciting. We never believed this would be possible!” Joyce Chibouro, farmer and member of the Kasinthula Premium Committee.

  3. “Before being a cane sugar farmer I had a house which was grass thatched. Now, I have managed to build a good house of burnt bricks with iron sheets for the roof.” Alfred Butao, sugar cane farmer and member of Kasinthula Cane Growers.

  4. Craft Aid, Mauritius Sugar-Packing

  5. MiFruta, Chile Raisins “It is difficult for small producers to make a living from our work here. Many farmers have had to sell their land and move to the city. Now, with fair trade I expect my son will have access to a better education.” Pili Contreras

  6. “Fairtrade is the opportunity we needed to have a dignified income from our work and to improve the quality of life of our families.” Richard Astudillo, Member of MiFruta Board

  7. EksteenskuilAgricultural Co-operative, South Africa Raisins

  8. Agrocel, India Basmati rice “I get 25% more when I sell my organic rice to Agrocel. Because of this I can educate my children and look after my family better.” Sansar Chand, a member of Agrocel’s Premium Committee.

  9. “The help that we need in farming is provided by Agrocel including interest-free credit. Sometimes I need to spend money on my farming and it could be three or four months until I can sell my harvest. Agrocel provide things and don’t make me pay extra when I sell my rice.” Dalbir Singh, Vice President of Agrocel

  10. Green Net Co-operative, Thailand, Jasmine Rice “Fair trade allows the producer to live and doesn’t take advantage of the consumer. Each should take care of each other.” Saphanfa Nawboonniyom

  11. Apicoop, Chile Honey and dried blueberries “If Apicoop didn’t exist the best we could do would be to sell [honey] locally, but we would be able to sell only about one ton. There were times here when there were beekeepers but they all quit because there was no market. If there was no Apicoop to buy the honey, it would not make sense that we worked in this.” Guido Guenupan

  12. Anapqui, Bolivia Quinoa “Anapqui is very important. The main support goes to the organic [quinoa] farmers so there are all these building programmes and technical assistance that are giving extra support in each co-op.” Vitaliano Ayaviri Huayllani “Fair trade allows us to share all the benefits that PACHAMAMA (mother earth) gives to us without starving anymore,” Ivan Chire Condori
