University Outreach

WWTP will be donating 1,000 organic cotton tee-shirts manufactured under Fair-Trade conditions in a Free Trade Zone to the university with the best “full circle” International Women’s Business Program.

Why do we want to involve students?

Motivated students can research and explore the possibilities of creating fair trade products in the free trade zones of the world in many areas of study. Design students can develop graphics to promote fair trade, or create logos and images on clothing for the socially conscious consumer. Marketing students can develop ideas for campaigns to influence consumers to purchase fair trade products. Business students can analyze the numbers – the production cost of using fair trade vendors. They can research the benefits of international trade and domestic trade. In international education programs, university exchange students can research agriculture, education and health, sharing these programs worldwide. Universities can help seek grants to explore the jobs fair trade can create. They can help make the case for fair trade globally.
