I - The Mission of World Fair Trade Organization

WFTO aims to improve the livelihoods of marginalized producers and workers, especially in the South.

WFTO aims to change unfair structures of international trade, mainly by means of Fair Trade, to improve and co-ordinate the co-operation of its member organizations and to promote the interests of and provide services to its member organizations and individuals.

WFTO put its Agenda for Change into action in 2008. Conceived in 2007, and approved wholeheartedly by membership, the Agenda for Change is WFTO’s response to the challenges of our times and the corresponding opportunities it presents for Fair Trade. Its main elements include:

• developing a credible certification system • strengthening of membership and monitoring • increasing visibility and a stronger voice in the Fair Trade community.

Two significant conclusions were agreed by WFTO membership at its AGM held in October in Sri Lanka.

The first was to change our name from the International Fair Trade Association (IFAT) to the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO). The new name and its corresponding branding accurately reflect the breadth and impact of our global network. A strong brand will not only give us a stronger voice, the recognition it brings will tangibly benefit members.

The second was the adoption of a common Charter of Fair Trade Principles. The Charter was developed together with the Fairtrade Labelling Organisations International (FLO). As part of a quality management project, WFTO and FLO had agreed to develop a common set of Fair Trade principles. The Charter is the result of the careful and deliberate work of Ian Bretman for FLO and Carola Reintjes for WFTO. Several face-to-face conversations between FLO and WFTO at the board level were also part of the process. Thanks to this kind of close cooperation, trust continues to grow between our organizations.

In addition to these two key outcomes, WFTO’s 2008 initiatives focused on delivering the Agenda for Change through our activities and programs. A brief summary of each is provided below.

Paul Myers WFTO President

Membership and Monitoring

A start was made in 2008 with the development of an internal quality management system for membership and monitoring. In order to do so, a freeze was placed on Self Assessment Reports (SARs) and on External Verification.

The first step was to streamline the acceptance of new members, and the handling of SARs. Backlogs were eliminated in both membership and monitoring. Tools, documentation and procedures improved. Processing in both membership and monitoring has been shortened considerably. However, attempts to build a monitoring scoring system failed and will be revisited in 2009. Overall, WFTO has made substantial improvements in the quality of its membership and monitoring system, but this must continue as part of the overall process to integrate these in the Sustainable Fair Trade Management System (SFTMS).

In 2008, we had 415 members. The number is the sum total of the following: 302 Fair Trade Organizations, 5 Associate Organizations, 21 Fair Trade Networks, 28 Fair Trade Support Organizations, 54 Individual Associates and 5 Honorary members.

Advocacy The Fair Trade Advocacy Office (FTAO) in Brussels conducted research funded by CORDAID on: • what the members of the WFTO regions of mean by advocacy • the themes around which advocacy activities could be based • what skills are needed to implement these activities.

Their conclusion was that a pre-condition for policy change is raising awareness of Fair Trade and its principles. FTAO also participated in discussions to set up an “Ethical Trade Fact Finding Process” to study the possible added value of ISO work in this area. In Europe, the office advocated for a higher level of EU support for Fair Trade, especially for disadvantaged producers.

IV – WFTO’s Projects

Sustainable Fair Trade Management System (SFTMS)

Significant progress has been made in the SFTMS and the development of a label. The SFTMS framework was discussed in a first Technical Meeting of experts in Germany in February 2008. Soon after, the SFTMS Pre-draft Standard was circulated to members, and discussed in Cairo where the African and North American & Pacific Rim regions held their regional conferences. The significant feedback was integrated in the first Draft Standard published in August. The first round of Internal Stakeholders Consultations included regional meetings in Europe, Latin America and Asia.

In July 2008, 12 pilots participated in a workshop in Thailand to analyze the requirements of implementing the SFTMS in their organizations. These pilots are being coached and guided by our SFTMS consultants.

Regionalization

Regionalization continued to be a significant item on the Board’s agenda. Testing membership administration in Africa continues. Regional offices and boards are all active and stronger today than a year ago, although the North America & Pacific rim does not have a formal office or board at this point. I encourage you to read the separate regional reports, as there is a lot of good creative work being done.

World Fair Trade Day Climate change was the theme of World Fair Trade Day 2008. From producers to Fair Trade shops, from Gothenburg to Cape Town, from Santiago to Tokyo, thousands of people asked the world to buy fair and respect the environment. Many local, regional and national newspapers have published articles on the event. Consumers bought the campaign products and learned more about Fair Trade. The World Fair Trade Day website, Youtube, Facebook, MySpace and other web communities were used to inform the public about this important event.

Looking ahead, it was agreed that WFTO would take over global coordination for World Fair Trade Day (WFTD). WFTO thanks NEWS! and People Tree for their coordination of the 2008, as well as previous WFTDs.

Finances and donors Financially, 2008 was a challenging year. Taking over global responsibility for World Fair Trade Day, while trying to raise funds for this has been hard work. Collecting outstanding membership fees continues. Resources for the pilots of the SFTMS are also required, despite a number of groups carrying this responsibility from their own funds.

At the same time, we are grateful to HIVOS for their support for quality management improvement, to CORDAID for their support of the SFTMS as well as regional activities, to the Levi Strauss Foundation for their support of three initial SFTMS pilots, to the Dutch Association of World Shops for their support of development of the Website and to numerous others who supported the work in funds and time. We are optimistic looking ahead that we will garner the necessary support.

We pay tribute to Stefan Durwael, who as Executive Director left the organization at the end of 2008, after making a significant contribution in this role for three years. His institutional memory as a result of his involvement from the early days of the Fair Trade movement, both for food and crafts, plus his 110% passion for Fair Trade and its benefits to the small producer will be missed.

Thank you also to Constance Kandie for her contribution on the Board the first half of the year, for her optimistic “can do” spirit and continued support.

Finally, all of us owe a great deal to our strong team in the Secretariat, both to those who have moved on, but especially to those who continue. With the absence of an Executive Director the last months of the year, you have carried an unusual load, meeting deadlines, putting in extra hours, while continuing to be passionate about the mission. Thank you.

V - WFTO Regions

Asia: WFTO-Asia Members: 111 Regional HQ: Manila, Philippines

2008 was a defining year in the institutional development of the Asia Fair Trade Forum, as it becomes the World Fair Trade Organization-Asia following the name change of the global organisation.

In October, the WFTO-Asia Annual General Assembly approved the Strategic Plan: Agenda for Sustainable Growth. This is a five-year blueprint that will help them shift from a networking model to a market facilitation model, to address the obstacles of scaling up the fair trade craft sector. Further organizational changes have taken place in the last quarter of the year with the election of the five member Board of Directors, appointment of new Executive Director and structural integration of Country Networks into WFTO-Asia’s governance system.

Amendments to the Bylaws and 14 resolutions known as the “Marawila Declaration” were also passed at the conference, which will shape the future of the organisation.

In 2008, many activities took place as part of the second year of the major project Asia Center for Learning for Fair Trade: Strengthening Capacity of Small Enterprises to Access Markets , covering a wide range of members in each country: eCommerce An eCommerce Workshop was held in the Philippines; and three eCommerce Mentoring in India, Philippines, and Sri Lanka.

Marketing & Design Two Marketing Planning Workshops were held in Indonesia (with Timor Leste) and Bangladesh; two Integrated Marketing and Design Consulting in Nepal and Indonesia (with Timor Leste); and two Marketing Planning Mentoring in Nepal.

Management Three Fair Trade organization scans conducted in Indonesia; three Export Management System (EMS) Workshops conducted in the Philippines, Indonesia, and Vietnam.

Africa: Cooperation for Fair Trade in Africa (COFTA) Members: 75 Regional HQ: Nairobi, Kenya

2008 was a year of growth for COFTA and Fair Trade in Africa. COFTA continued to embrace its role as a strong regional network, with a large part to play in the WFTO agenda for change, and the vision for a strong global network.

• Fair Trade sensitization drives in Ghana, Uganda, Ethiopia and Nigeria (close to 100 producers participated) to strengthen COFTA’s profile and establish country networks in Africa. • Rwanda Producer Support project implemented jointly with Shared Interest Foundation – a three-year project to support 50 handicraft producers in vital business and financial skills. • Internal Control Systems Missions in Kenya and Tanzania to help members comply and report on Fair Trade Standards. • “Our Safety, Our Responsibility” campaign in the Soap Stone Industry in Kenya. COFTA also jointly conducted research and held two workshops to help establish and maintain health and safety standards in the soapstone industry. • Joint contribution with the International Trade Centre (ITC) to a dialogue session at the UNCTAD XII held in Accra, Ghana. • Supported 5 producers from Ghana, Kenya and Tanzania to participate in the International Art and Craft Fair Ouagadougou – the largest Arts and Crafts Fair in Africa. • Building COFTA’s advocacy and lobbying agenda and developing a clear strategy aimed at long-term programs. • Promotion of African Fair Trade in Slovakia, as part of a larger project to build markets in Eastern Europe. • Participation in the ECA-CSO Conference “Free Trade or Fair Trade” organized by the ACTADE project.

COFTA also held their Regional Conference, “Africa Shines through Fair Trade”, in May. The event brought together 162 participants from Africa, as well as representatives from all WFTO regions.

Europe: WFTO Europe Members: 138 Regional HQ: Cordoba, Spain

WFTO’s European region was established in 2007. The organisation’s 2008 focus was on internal coordination and networking activities to strengthen their structure and cohesion between members.

Retail Standards WFTO Europe was mandated to facilitate a global discussion and working group to develop a Fair Trade standard for retailers. The group developed an discussion paper which initiated the international debate on this relevant issue. A European Seminar was held in Paris in April. Representatives from ten national Fair Trade networks and several Fair Trade organizations participated. A global meeting was held in May, with representatives from Africa, Asia, Latin America, North America/Pacific and Europe. The resulting paper was circulated to all WFTO members in 2009.

Events and publicity During 2008 several relevant events helped to strengthen European coordination and to promote Fair Trade and WFTO Europe, outreaching to a wide public:

• Malmo, Sweden: European Social Forum, a round table participation

©2009 World Fair Trade Organization. All Rights Reserved. 8 • Sweden: European worldshop seminar • Madrid, Spain: Sustainability and Fair Trade seminar, keynote speaker; sustainable consumption seminar, speaker. • Hungary: six music festivals, Fair Trade festival, TV exposure.

The European regional conference and AGM was held in Rome in September, with the aim of preparing the foundation for a strong Fair Trade network. The main outcomes of the meeting were:

• A higher awareness of the function, structure, services and programme of WFTO Europe, and willingness to participate in its activities. • Approval of the international discussion paper of a Fair Trade retailer standard and a European position decided. • Approval of the Memorandum of Understanding between WFTO Europe and NEWS (Network of European World Shops), including the integration of NEWS into WFTO Europe. This is a significant and strategic step towards further cohesion of the European movement. • European position taken on the Sustainable Fair Trade Management System.

Latin America: WFTO Latinoamericana Members: 51 Regional HQ: Areguá, Paraguay

The Latin America region focused its 2008 activities on Advocacy, Cultural Identity and Market Access.

Advocacy Their objective is to promote and position WFTO-LA among other Latin American initiatives and networks linked to the social economy and Fair Trade. This is done in alliance with Espacio de Economía Solidaria y Comercio Justo Paraguay, and in with the organization Espacio Mercosur Solidario. WFTO-LA also participated actively in: • The Fair Trade and Social Economy Forum, and in regional events in Paraguay and Argentina. • Regional and national fairs such as the Solidarity Regional Fair, with expositions from Argentina, Paraguay, Brazil and Uruguay. • Two workshops in Spain as well as participation in two presentations of Fair Trade, in the framework of Bioexpo Colombia.

The organisation also invested in communications to educate and help develop markets. Their newsletter reached more than 5,000 people in Spanish, English and Portuguese in print and online. The regional secretariat also produced a monthly bulletin Latidos del Comercio Justo with valuable information on training, information exchange, and a database of business and financial resources.

Market Access Members participated in several fairs carried out in the framework of the first Shop Meeting. Fairs were also conducted in the VIII Meeting of Mercosur Solidario and at the workshop of Solidarity Economy and Fair Trade in Paraguay and Brazil.

Cultural Identity The issue of cultural identity is strong in the Latin American region, and there were several activities in 2008 on this topic. WFTO-LA developed a proposal for a Cultural Identity Standard, which was presented all WFTO regional Boards and the global organization for review. In August, they carried out an international photography contest on Cultural Identity, with 930 photos from 14 countries in Latin America and Europe.

Finally, 28 representatives attended the Regional WFTO-LA conference held in Rio de Janeiro. The main objectives were to revise our strategic planning, and to discuss the global activities of WFTO.

North American and Pacific Rim Members: 40 Regional HQ: virtual The North America & Pacific Rim is the WFTO’s youngest region, and comprises a network of members from Australia, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and the United States. Given the huge geographical spread of the region a virtual secretariat format is used to meet the needs and responsibilities of members. The region held its 2008 conference alongside their African friends in Cairo in May. The main items on the agenda were the proposed new name and branding for WFTO, the SFTMS, and the development of a regional structure to meet the needs of the region and our responsibilities to the global body. Members gave frank and in-depth input for the global board to consider on the first two issues. On the third, it was decided to begin work on a “virtual” web-based office for the region. The impact of the global economic crisis put the web-based office on hold, as members refocused their efforts on their own marketing and survival. In addition, a potential new global website might incorporate many needs of the regional bodies. To avoid duplication of effort, time and money, it was decided to wait until scoping work on the global site is completed in 2009. In North America, the Fair Trade Federation developed a new strategic plan designed to recruit more Fair Trade members and to grow the movement and sales in the USA and Canada, the region’s biggest market. Their emphasis is on ensuring that FTF members are 100% fair traders, and they are currently working on fair trade standards for retailers, wholesalers, commodities (food, etc) and cafes. The Fair Trade Resource Network organized the world's largest fair trade coffee break on World Fair Trade in May, with most FTF and WFTO members in the USA and Canada participating. All 80 Ten Thousand Villages retail stores in the USA organized their own fair trade day coffee break. For most members in the region Fair Trade sales continued to grow in 2008 but slowed by year's end due to the global economic crisis.

WFTO’s Strategic Plan for 2007 – 2011 includes a number of objectives during this period: • Growth in membership to 400 members • Decentralization of part of the membership • Capacity-building within the regions • Inclusion of budgets for fundraising and labelling • A single annual membership fee • Extensive external funding from 2009 onwards • Gradual build up of reserves/own capital.

While striving towards these strategic goals, budgets and finances continued to pose a challenge in 2008.

The expenditures on Branding and Communication, following and in accordance with the change of name to WFTO, were high. However, very limited funding was realised. The Board is fully aware of the consequences for the General Reserve, and the jeopardy it puts to our organisation.

The need for close follow-up on membership fees, external funding, a larger donor base, and specific projects underwritten by targeted donors, were all identified as important to the future financial planning and budgeting exercises within WFTO. In addition, close monitoring of spending against budgets would be needed, looking at the present Revenue & Expenditure account and Balance Sheet.
