Carola Reintjes is the European representative of the World Fair Trade Organisation. Participating in S.Maria RS, Brasil at the 1st World Forum for Solidarity Economy (Jan.22-24, 2010), she affirms that Fair trade is a live movement that not only is part of the solidarity economy, but is growing within it, or otherwise it would be a paternalistic exchange between two actors, one who sells and one who buys. The WFTO is working on a certification system for enterprises who respect the values of fair trade.
