Hi, I’m Silvana and I’m going to tell you my story being fair trade. My family and I harvested cotton and more than 15 years ago we used to sell it to local buyers at a very low price even though this cotton was used for big textile factories, because of this our living condition was very bad, money was not enough and therefore food was not enough either, our children could not go to school; But 10 years ago we started to be part of a new idea of commerce where workers like us could earn money by buying the products manufactured thanks to our crops, in this way our life changed completely, we still have the harvest but now we live in better conditions and work with dignity, our children could finish their school and we do not miss any meal of the day.
