Fair Trade Tools and Resources
Cover photo: MCIC displays various Fair trade products and information.
Part of MCIC’s mandate is to work within Manitoba to build understanding and engagement on international issues. One of our main initiatives in this area is our Fair Trade Manitoba program. Through this program, MCIC works with retailers, consumers and organizations to spread the word about the benefits of fair trade and encourage its wider availability in the province.
