Redefine

This August I fulfilled an ambition of a lifetime by visiting Islamic Spain.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank the International Business Standards Organization for making me a chartered signatory.

Many thanks to the charming and patient Anna Sadeghpour for featuring The Little Fair Trade Shop in her Blog ''10 Easy Ways To Make a Difference in Dubai.'' It was lovely to meet her for tea.

While visiting friends and family in the United Kingdom I boarded a train to historical York and met with Jeremy Piercy author and MD of Shared Earth at his flagship store, York, the United Kingdom.

On my final day in London I managed to visit my local fairtrade store Fair Deal Organic and Fair Trade located in North London.

At the beginning of July and during the final days of Ramadan I boarded a flight to Beirut to attend my first ever fair trade towns conference in Baskinta, Lebanon.

Bruce Crowther MBE and the Fair Trade Lebanon team had asked me to present a fairtrade puppet show featuring Fairis the Frog, Chalaak the Monkey, Chu Maya and Ram Kali.

I also co presented a workshop with Movement Sociale titled ''Building Bridges with the Youth in Dubai the United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.'' 

In this month recap I've talked about my Ramadan reflections and participating in my first ever International Fair Trade Towns Conference 2016, Baskinta, Lebanon.
