Partners for Just Trade is committed to a holistic approach to fair trade. For us, it goes beyond ensuring fair wages and healthy, safe work conditions. It includes our long-term partnerships with artisans in Peru, Haiti, and Cambodia to help grow their businesses and strengthen their communities. You can be part of the change.
PJT is a non-profit, faith-based organization that builds partnerships between producers living in extreme poverty and consumers in North America. We address root causes of poverty through education, Fair Trade sales, solidarity, and a commitment to trade justice.
PJT works with our partners to:
- Respect the traditions and cultural identity of all people
- Educate consumers on issues of justice and environmental and social responsibility in global trade
- Educate producers about quality production, economic development, democratic and cooperative management, small business development and environmental responsibility
- Create, expand and sustain economic opportunities for fairly-traded goods produced by marginalized people
