“UNCTAD and the Fair Trade movement were both born on the basis of the -Trade Not Aid- motto. Yet more than 60 years after, there is still a long way to go before all trade relations and supply chains are fair.
I congratulate the Fair Trade movement for the adoption of the International Fair Trade Charter and look forward to working together to achieve UNCTAD´s and the Fair Trade movement common goals”.
Isabelle Durant, Deputy Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD)
