The other faces of the economy. Invest in people.

BannerMilleVisages

There are a thousand different ways to invest in people and encourage an economy centred on men and women! Here are some examples on how you can participate to the campaign and promote the development of sustainable economies.

Make a donation !

By making a donation to CECI or WUSC, you’ll contribute directly to the activities of Uniterra partners, present in 13 countries around the world, and to the development of a cooperative, a collective business, a vocational training system or a fair trade project. Your donation will help in the fight against poverty and it represents a long-term benefit on many levels: job creation, income generation for women, education for children, accessible health care, etc.

Buy fair trade !

By buying fair trade products, you’ll contribute to the income increase of many of our partners in Africa, Asia and the Americas, as well as the improvement of the living conditions of their members and communities.

Here are some recommended Web sites where you can buy fair trade products or find out where they are sold:

Ten Thousand Villages store
FibrEthik / Fair trade clothes and accessories (textile)

Fair Trade, Green Coffee Importing Cooperative
Les services adaptés Transit (Café Nelligan)

Show the human face hidden behind every fair trade purchase!

You can do it anytime or by taking advantage of an opportunity, like the ones offered by the campaign “Buy into change”.
