Social Responsibility

SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY - AN IMPORTANT CONCERN FOR BAZAAR BERLIN

FAIR & SOCIAL - FAIR TRADE CONNECTS

Combining good business with social responsibility is an important concern of Bazaar Berlin. Since the fair began as a development event in 1962, it has regularly supported and promoted programs for the ethically correct, fairly traded and sustainable production of goods. In 2014, Bazaar Berlin received its own clearly marked fair trade exhibition area, the FAIR TRADE MARKET. In 2021, the FAIR & SOCIAL theme world will celebrate its premiere at Bazaar Berlin where fair trade products will be on display alongside offers from social institutions, socially responsible companies and organizations.

Within this framework we have been cooperating with the following organizations, among others, for over 10 years:

ACTION ALLIANCE FAIR TRADE

The Aktionsbündnis Fairer Handel Berlin makes the diversity and impact of the Berlin fair trade movement visible.
Aktionsbündnis Fairer Handel has been an exhibitor at Bazaar Berlin since 2021.

They are part of the Fair & Social exhibition area.
