FINE was created in 1998 and is an informal association of the four main fair trade networks: *F Fairtrade Labelling Organizations International (FLO) *I International Fair Trade Association, now the World Fair Trade Organization (WFTO) *N Network of European Worldshops (NEWS!) and *E European Fair Trade Association (EFTA) == Aims and goals == The aim of FINE is to enable these networks and their members to cooperate on: * the development of harmonized core standards and guidelines for fair trade, * harmonization, and increase in the quality and efficiency of fair trade monitoring systems, * advocacy and campaigning work, harmonization of their information and communication systems. FINE is an informal working group. It has no formal structure and no decision-making power. Meetings are held as required. Preparation, hosting and facilitation of the meetings rotates between members. Decisions are taken by the boards of the FINE members. Since April 2004 FINE has run a fair trade advocacy office in Brussels. Its role is to coordinate the advocacy activities of fair trade proponents at both the European and the international levels. The aim of the office is to step up public support for fair trade and to speak out for trade justice. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「FINE」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
