Fairtrade at the University of BradfordThe University of Bradford has achieved institution-wide Fairtrade status (December 2006) - making more ethically-sound food and drink choices available for its staff and students.
We now have a Fairtrade Policy, make Fairtrade products available for sale in all campus shops and cafes, serve Fairtrade products at meetings, promote Fairtrade to students and staff and have created a Catering Committee to oversee our Fairtrade initiatives.
The University hopes that by achieving Fairtrade status our students and staff will become more aware of the inequalities of trade, and the implications of their buying decisions. Fairtrade empowers people to challenge the ways that trade works: every member of a university can make socially responsible choices.
A variety of Fairtrade products are now available within University outlets including: coffee, teas, chocolates, fruit, orange juices and cereal bars.
