26-09-2005 08:15
The media has reported that Nestle is applying for a Fairtrade mark for a new brand of coffee, to be sold in the UK only. Do you think this is a step in the right direction or a cynical strategy to counter the boycott over the company's baby milk marketing? Will it affect your promotion of the Fairtrade mark?Audio - interviews from Hyde Park anti war rally

25-09-2005 16:51
On Monday night at the Crocus Cafe in Lenton ( http://www.thecrocus.co.uk - for directions) there will be a meeting to discuss a new project to build a sustainable-energy-powered hospital in Togo. Josie Kaye, an ex-student of Nottingham University recently returned from Togo, will be giving a presentation on the current status of the project. The plans are in the early stages at the moment, but the rough idea is to build a link between Nottingham and the community of Nyitoe-Zukpé where the project will be based. The two communities will then work together to fundraise, design and build the hospital.

GENEVA - SWITZERLAND (HQ of WTO)
STOP the WTO corporate agenda before Hong Kong !
With December’s Ministerial Meeting in Hong Kong in view, WTO members are speeding up negotiations to ensure a successful outcome. The collapse of the trade talks in Cancun still in mind, the WTO changed their negotiating strategy. Negotiators will seek to resolve major conflicting issues in Geneva during General Council meetings – thus avoiding the public scrutiny and popular pressures that contributed to previous deadlocks. Decisions would thus be taken in an even more opaque and undemocratic fashion. Civil society must mobilize to counter this strategy!
