Summary/Abstract: The aim of this chapter is to identify how Fair Trade practices address some of the contemporary global challenges arising from the processes of globalisation. Methods include analysis of the literature, reports, data, and information from organisations such as Fairtrade International, Fairtrade Poland, the Polish Fair Trade Association, the World Fair Trade Organization, the World Bank, and the United Nations. Fair Trade focuses on achieving social, environmental, and economic goals, especially in addressing poverty. Fair Trade is a social movement enhancing social awareness about global challenges and also a market of products that meet Fair Trade criteria. It aims to improve the living conditions of marginalised communities by tackling the negative impacts of globalisation and supporting sustainable development.
