I'm in touch by email with a guy from italian fairtrade office (I'm from Italy) and we are discussing about that.
Since he knows nothing about cryptos, he's asking for a list of merchants' sites all around the world accepting faircoin and generally cryptos to better figure out how big our community is. Do you know where can I find a list like that?

We'll be working on that list

In the meantime I'm working on a way to streamline initiatives like these. Right now they are only snippets located on TitanPad, but eventually I would like to dedicate forum posts to this when we have a place of our own :-)

I've marked this as the FairTrade Initiative. So me and Thokon00 (still have to ask him, but he wanted to contribute on this initiative, so it'll be okay lol) will coach you where ever we can.

I think that first we need to establish what we want to do for World Fair Trade. (Did you know it's World Fair Trade Day today BTW? So Happy World Fair Trade Day Cheesy

).

When I look at the site:
http://www.wfto.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=167&Itemid=1
- Get in touch with Fair Trade Organizations in your area
- Buy Fair Trade Products when you can
- Celebrate World Fair Trade Day
- Look out for Fair Trade campaigns you can join
- Get involved in Fair Trade Towns
- Make a donation to WFTO

We need to cherry pick the best options. Having the option to pay only for fairtrade products with FairCoin sounds like a great idea, but might still be a bit out of our league yet. Wink

It's certainly something where we can work towards though...

What are your thoughts on this? What goal is achievable? I certainly have some ideas ;-)

edit: one more note; I'm not sure what the structure of Fair Trade actually is. There are so many fair trade sites. Something we need to find out as well.

edit2: right now you have more coaches then team members Tongue

Who wants to contribute some of his(or her) time to think this through?

I think setting up a shop where you can buy these fair-trade products with faircoin is possible. Not easy but possible. I check the options and see what I can do...
