Fair Trade Conference 2012

 

Fair Trade Colleges and Universities

Regional Conference — Friday April 13th

Of the many exciting events taking place throughout the semester, perhaps our most exciting event is the annual Fair Trade Colleges and Universities Regional Conference

hosted by Siena each year. Schools, individuals and organizations from across the northeast region gather at Siena each year to share best practices and learn more about

promoting Fair Trade. It is an opportunity for Siena to teach the lessons it has learned as well as to learn from those who attend.
