An evening full of fair trade: Scheibbser Weltladen enthusiastically with coffee quiz

e In an exciting evening full of information about Fair Trade Coffee took place in the parish hall of Scheibbs. The world shop invited to a special event where the main focus was on the coffee from Mexico.

Visiting was Leandro E. Ventura Morales, a representative of the Ismam small farmers' community, who was on his journey through Austria. He acts as an export officer of the cooperative, which has been committed to the sustainable production of organic coffee and where he also actively participates in coffee cultivation, he continues to support his father and the other members in marketing their products.

report on the life of small farmers

Morales took the opportunity to tell those present more about his life and the challenges of the small farmers in Mexico. He specified that Fair Trade is not just a sales strategy, but a philosophy that aims to secure fair wages and promote sustainable practices. This is particularly important to improve the living conditions of the local communities and to support ecological cultivation.

The event also included a panel discussion in which the audience asked questions and actively participated in the dialogue. Morales promoted the exchange and answered numerous questions, which led to a lively discourse.

coffee quiz and winner

Another highlight of the evening was a coffee quiz in which participants could demonstrate their knowledge of coffee. The right answers to ten tricky questions brought two lucky winners a surprise: two packs of the new EZA coffee Fairioso. Monika Schoder and Sandra Buchhofer could look forward to this great reward.

The event in the world shop was not only a source of information about fair trade, but also an opportunity to raise awareness of the origin and conditions of coffee cultivation. More information about how such initiatives are aware of fair trade are on www.noen.at to be found.
