It's encouraging to see three days devoted to Fair Trade in the world's next superpower. Hong Kong is hosting the Fair Trade Fair and Symposium December 13-16, an event that happens to coincide with the WTO Hong Kong Ministerial Conference. With the symposium, expo and fashion show, there is a focus on growing and mainstreaming fair trade and sustainable business practices.
People Tree, host of the December 14 fashion show, creates fashion forward items produced by marginalized communities from around the globe. Intrepid model and activist Summer Rayne Oakes is lead model in the show. :: Fair Trade Fair and Symposium
