Fairtrade Conference 2025

Four members of the Peregrine Class attended the annual Fairtrade Conference in the Legislative Buildings, Douglas. The day consisted of four workshops, including a debating session in the Tynwald Chamber, which all four children participated in. The objective of the day was to encourage critical thinking about the way the world trades and how as consumers we can make decisions that have positive and negative impacts on other people and the environment.

Fairtrade Fortnight is held each September, and the children will share what they learnt at the conference with pupils back in school to help raise awareness and plan Fairtrade events.
