Unfair Trade is being developed by students from a London comprehensive school.
It is a forum for young people to consider and discuss the human issues surrounding global trade. In our view, the globalised economy brings development and prosperity that is not always equally shared, and can sometimes result in the unnecessary and unjustifiable exploitation of people. Rather than merely condemn, we would like to encourage readers to contemplate the meaning of development. The issues are complex!
Nestle Aggressively market baby milk products to mothers, and health workers in developing countries
This practice has been condemned by WHO & UNICEF
Water mixed with the milk product is often dirty, this leads to diarrhoea and often death
According to UNICEF, 4000 babies die from unsafe bottle feeding
Baby milk products can cost over 50% of the Family income
This leads to over dilution of the milk product, leading to malnutrition and death.
