The Fair Trade Sustainability Alliance is an innovative Fair Trade and Social Responsibility certification company working in world-wide partnership with established organic certifiers. FairTSA provides zero-carbon, low cost, fully transparent, short-cycle certifications that incorporate project-based accountability through our unique and mandatory development initiatives. ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐๐ฏ๐๐ฅ๐จ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญFairTSA ensures that the community development associated with our work is accountable and sustainable. To this end, FairTSA has developed its own community development training program and leverages certifiers' networks, qualified indigenous personnel, and collaborating NGOs to support producer communities in efforts to create decent living conditions while empowering the local communities through the democratic processes.๐๐ฎ๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ซ๐ฌOften, Fair Trade and Social Responsibility certifications leave the small producers alone in trying to cope with requirements that are based on our Western, document- centered "standard and control" culture. When this Western culture meets people in a mostly oral or traditional culture, the results can clash, and mutual misunderstandings are not uncommon. Therefore, we offer our producers support even before they sign up with us - from free seminars, to the assignment of a Producer Relations Manager to help guide through the process.๐๐ฉ๐๐ง ๐๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐๐ซ๐We are the only Fair Trade standard holder with an "open" certification system, meaning that every certifier who is interested in working with our standard can do so, provided that they comply with our basic requirements.
