“The small producers and banana workers who participate in Fairtrade are very honored to receive our buyers and allies on April 17, 18, and 19 to discuss and analyze the different social and environmental challenges facing the banana industry. We want to make them participate in our mission to achieve greater social and environmental justice together; in advance, we welcome them to the Dominican Republic,”<\/strong><\/em> said Marike de Pe\u00f1a, chair of CLAC’s Board of Directors.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
