The Washington Fair Trade Coalition works to build a just economy by confronting neoliberal economic systems that put corporate profits over people and the planet. We work to elevate the voices most marginalized by trade – that of workers, migrants, farmers, environmental activists and many more. Our organizing work is founded on the principles of international solidarity, that all of our voices are stronger together and that we all benefit from working jointly to create a fair and sustainable global trading system. ![]()

Fair Trade Not Free Trade
What Would It Look Like?
For too long, U.S. trade policy has benefited transnational corporations
at the expense of workers’ rights, consumer safety and the environment
at home and abroad. The Washington Fair Trade Coalition, working closely
with local, national, and international partners, aims to build a new model of
trade, a model that supports our communities and our world. What could that look like?
