OUR MISSION
Picture
We are a Calgary-based, not-for-profit organization, focused on educating and bringing fair trade products
​to its' Citizens
We embrace all Calgarians with  Respect, Inclusivity , Transparency and Compassion
Fair Trade Calgary is a group under the not-for-profit organization
Engineers Without Borders (EWB) Calgary.

​We are working to increase awareness and encourage availability of fair trade products in Calgary.

We would like ethical purchasing to be an everyday choice for Calgarians, with fair trade products easily accessible at stores and restaurants across the City.  
​
​This can be achieved when the general public is more knowledgeable about the global impact of buying fair trade products locally.
Our mission in 2018 is to help Calgary achieve Fair Trade Town Status. 

​Fair Trade Town is a designation that acknowledges the leadership and commitment of Canadian Municipalities to fair trade.  Only products and producers can be certified Fairtrade. 

Presently, there are 25 Fair Trade towns across Canada, including three Fair Trade Towns in Alberta (Olds, Canmore and Edmonton).  

​We want to see Calgary become part of this growing movement!

BECOME A FAIR TRADE CONSUMER
As a consumer, buying fair trade products locally is an easy way to make a positive global impact and help eradicate poverty. 

​It is important to establish relationships between businesses, schools, community groups and government that support fair trade principles so we can educate ourselves on where our products come from and make it easier to choose ethically sourced products in Calgary.​
