By: Martina Bozic, Emma Jarvi och Susanna Zeller, Red Cross Community College -10
The purpose of our field study has been set to obtain a deeper understanding of three things:
A) the tea production in Sri Lanka, B) the tea producers work situation in Sri Lanka and C) tea products certified and labelled with the Fairtrade certification, produced in Sri Lanka.
Our qualitative field study is an attempt to understand how the Fairtrade certification can be used as a standard and as an international tool to make an improvement of the circumstances of life for the tea producers and the tea plantation workers in Sri Lanka.
