Fair Trade Network

 

Goal: To develop the fair trade business sector; to link fair trade products
to the international market; to create fair trade standards and certification
specific to Cambodia.

Context:
Fair trade supports developing communities and small producers by ensuring fair labor practices and wages. Many producers in Cambodia
wish to be part of a fair trade system; however, they lack information on what fair trade entails as well as connections to an international market
for their products.

Target Group:
Producers of silk and other products in Cambodia

OUTPUTS & SUCCESSES

  • Formation of active network of businesses, laborers, NGOs
    and trading organizations working to promote fair trade

  • Increased awareness of labor rights among laborers and producers

  • Greater enforcement of existing labor law,  improvements
    to existing legislation
