Panel discussion featuring:
- What is Fair Trade?

- Fair Trade in Athens
Succinct and heartfelt stories of why we choose to devote out life energies
to Fair Trade. From the Nicaraguan Sister City program to the ecology
of shade grown coffee, to how the Bible calls Christians to act for Social
Justice. A variety of perspectives, a common rallying call to act for
Fair Trade. Informative and inspiring presentations followed by group
discussion and questions.
