Advocacy

CLAC has an advocacy strategy to promote Fairtrade in the Latin American and Caribbean region and to make the voice of small producers and workers heard in different instances of the Fairtrade International system and the global Fairtrade movement.

CLAC’s advocacy initiatives seek to contribute to the following objectives:
