Fair Trade

While there has been an increase in fairly traded goods available in Victoria and at UVic, there is still much to be done to increase the awareness and market share of these ethical products. From Sep 2005-April 2006 Ian Hussey, co-founder of the Canadian Fair Trade Network and a Masters student at UVic, coordinated a VIPIRG fair trade group as part of a larger national network of student groups working on increasing the prominence of fair trade.
