The concept of Fair Trade demonstrates sustainability in action.

Through the Scottish Government’s commitment to Global Citizenship Education (GCE), the concept of Fair Trade must be embedded at all levels including through curriculum and learning activities, and in research, contributing to learning for sustainability and global citizenship in educational institutions as well as workplace learning and training.

See also ‘Public sector commitment to the Fair Trade Nation’ policy in the Public Sector chapter.
