I came across a nice blogpost fro the Ask for Fairtrade blog that had a podcast posted from a 30 minute lecture at the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics talking about the ethics of coffee. Definitely worth a listen.

By chance I just came across a fantastic 30 minute lecture recording from a seminar at the Oxford Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics.

If you want to get more insights into how Fairtrade certification affects the value chain of coffee production, and to hear both positive and critical perspectives on how Fairtrade is working on the ground, then it’s well worth a listen.

If you’ve only got five minutes (rather than the full thirty) to share, then the first section of the lecture provides a great history of Fairtrade and explains in detail the Fairtrade difference.
