Solidaridad is convinced that fair and sustainable trade is
the best way to combat structural poverty: A secure income is the basis for a decent and dignified life.The foundation’s aim is to support organizations in developing
countries working to combat poverty systematically.
Solidaridad seeks to achieve this aim through:
• strengthening producer and civil society organizations
in developing countries that work to make their
economy sustainable
• using the principles of Fair Trade and Corporate
Social Responsibility to engage companies, banks and
investors in developing trade chains with added value
for producers
• involving citizens and consumers in and creating
a support base in the church and in society for
sustainable economic development in a context of
economic, political and cultural globalization, through
a campaigning policy focused on awareness-raising and
behaviour change.
Solidaridad works on sustainable production chains from
producer to consumer so that farmers in the South get
better trade conditions for their products and have access to the (global) market.
Solidaridad is constantly involved in launching new initiatives. Max Havelaar set a new standard in the supermarkets; AgroFair was the first fairtrade fruit company with farmers as shareholders; brands like Kuyichi and m’braze have set a trend in sustainable fashion; Solidaridad is in the lead in the production of sustainable soy and biofuel cultivation; UTZ certified’s ‘Good Inside’ label provides a
model of sustainable enterprise for business.
