Scotland becomes a 
Fair Trade Nation!
2/28/13

Scotland has achieved Fairtrade Nation status, becoming just the second country in the world to do so.  In becoming a Fairtrade Nation, Scotland had to meet a range of criteria to demonstrate that it is  delivering a real and lasting impact by contributing to reducing poverty, improving the lives of people that they seek to support and helping them access their rights. 

(A World First - Wales was declared a FT nation in 2008!)
