    The University has held Fairtrade status since 2006 and since then Fairtrade has been an important part of how we demonstrate ethical consumption and social justice.<\/p>\n

    In 2022 we were successfully accredited to the new Fairtrade standard, achieving an additional one-star in recognition of our efforts to embed policies that ensure trade justice and ethical procurement and consumption are considered throughout our practices.<\/p>\n

    Our Fairtrade policy reflects the 5 goals of the Fairtrade Foundation:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. We’re striving to be a Fairtrade University!<\/li>\n
    2. Fairtrade products will be available for sale (where possible) in all University outlets.<\/li>\n
    3. We will seek to provide Fairtrade options at all University and departmental meetings.<\/li>\n
    4. We’ll work closely with the Students\u2019 Union to campaign for increased Fairtrade consumption within the University.<\/li>\n
    5. We have a University Fairtrade Steering Group to ensure policy implementation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
