Have you found it more difficult to support fair trade during this economic
downturn? Has the recession had an impact on your purchases of fair trade
foods?
I'm conducting research for my dissertation to discover whether fair trade
consumers have been impacted by the current recession. My research is from the
perspective of the consumer and I have created a online survey which is in
regards to consumers' experiences since the recession. The survey should take
under 5 minutes to fill out and the more responses I get the more accurate my
findings will be.
You can access the survey by going to the link:

Without your input I will not be able to conduct my dissertation so I thank you
in advance for your time in taking the survey. Also, if you know of anyone who
would be interested in taking the survey please send them on the link. Thank
you all again.
In addition to the survey perhaps we can begin a discussion about people's
experience with fair trade since the recession. Do you think it is as important
now to buy fair trade as it was before? Are you not willing to pay as high a
price now for fair trade considering the poor economic climate?
