Explore the possibility of moving the office of WFTO ASIA to a new location, more centrally located in Asia; e.) Initiate more activities to enable our producer members to adapt to the needs of the emerging Fair Trade markets throughout the Far East, including cosmopolitan centers of producer countries. Such activities should focus on - Fair Trade advocacy to consumers, relevant government bodies, etc.Product adaptation to suit these markets -To develop stronger links between producers and the market; and, f.) WFTO Global and Asian Boards to ensure that funds made available to support the development of the SFTMS be more greatly concentrated on the grassroots organizations for which the system is being designed.

WFTO Europes conference had many important outcomes, such as the approval of the new board composition, official documents such as the Annual and Financial Report 2009, new bylaws and the 2009 AGM were approved, and the new European representative to the Global Board of Directors was nominated. Latin American regional conference. The gathering of members at the Latin America regional conference in June discussed successfully the present and future direction of the regional network. It was also the opportunity to strengthen the networking between members. A total of 46 representatives from 27 organizations came to attend the conference, which was hosted by the Peruvian Fair Trade Platform with assistance from the regional office. During the conference, important decisions were taken to reinforce the operation of the regional office and the participation of Latin America in the global WFTO networking. Pacific regional conference. Representatives from around the region met for the 2010 Pacific Regional conference hosted by SERRV International in Madison, Wisconsin, in May. Staff from the global office and members from Europe, Asia and Africa were also present, as the region discussed ways to play their part in the regionalization of WFTO, and addressed global issues, developing a formal response to the WFTO board on issues concerning members. The conference also finalized a formal agreement between the Kenyan Fair Trade Association and the Pacific region to co-host the 2011 WFTO Global conference in Kenya in May 2011, and formed working groups to develop the program and handle logistics. New Chief Executive In May, the Board of Directors (BoD) appointed Carola Reintjes as a full time Chief Executive. Carola is a veteran in the Fair Trade movement having been in the business for more than 20 years already. Before taking the role as CE of the Global Office, Carola was the elected Europe representative to the board, the President of WFTO Europe and the Institutional Strategy and Political Alliances for the Spanish Fair Trade Organization COPADE. World Fair Trade Day 2010 WFTOs strategic plan, denominated Agenda for Change and approved by the membership in 2007, included a mandate on advocacy and global positioning of WFTO. With this aim in mind, WFTO is actively taking the lead role of the global celebration of the World Fair Trade Day. The WFTDay is an initiative of WFTO as the advocacy and marketing tool to disseminate Fair Trade as an effective and efficient contribution to poverty alleviation and the fight against climate change and economic crisis.

The 2010 celebration was coordinated by WFTO Europe. We thank the regional network for having decisively contributed to another successful celebration. Together with regional networks and offices, the WFTDay 2010 celebration sustained the momentum achieved in 2009. For the first time, a global event was successful carried out collectively by WFTO Regions, tangible evidence that working collectively can make things happen, globally! Fair Trade is growing in outreach and impact Fair Trade business is growing in 2010, a positive sign that the Fair Trade Movement is gaining ground worldwide, evidenced by the growth of the WFTO membership, an indication that Fair Trade is reaching more communities and continues to impact more households.
4. CORE SERVICES
4.1. Membership and Monitoring: Coping with growth and harmonization through QMS
By the end of 2010, WFTO had 472 member organizations (registered and provisional) and individuals in 74 countries, with 48 new members. The number is the sum total of the following: 354 Fair Trade Organizations, 34 Fair Trade Support Organizations, 27 Fair Trade Networks, 5 Associate Organizations, 48 Individual Associates, and 4 Honorary Members. The list of members per region and summary of the figures of membership can be viewed at the end of this report. Regarding monitoring, a total of 137 Self Assessment Reports (SARs) were processed with external desk-based verification. 120 members were approved as registered members. The Quality Management System (QMS) project funded by Hivos, initiated in 2007 and in collaboration with FLO showed important progress in 2009. The first half of the year was spent working on the proposals by the regions during the meeting in Nairobi with the regional directors. The work included identification of actors (regional and global) involved in the monitoring and membership processes, description of the existing processes used by the regions and the global office, and evaluation of various monitoring systems used by other global organizations. The later part of the year was focused on an in-depth evaluation of the monitoring and membership processes of the WFTO. The lessons learned from this exercise will be used to support the construction of a robust Membership and Monitoring system, harmonized between regional and global offices, which will be decided on at the 2011 AGM. The Quality Management System project included several work-streams where WFTO and FLO were cooperating closely. WFTO has been working with FLO on a common Fair Trade glossary of terms. The final version of the glossary will be publicly launched in Spring 2011. And lastly, WFTO is permanently promoting the Charter of Fair Trade Principles, WFTO and FLO shared principles, through website and other communication channels. This is part of the agreement that both organizations should publicize the charter on respective websites.

External Communication Since the launching of the new name and logo, the WFTO has made a considerable impact in positioning the organization as a global network of Fair Trade Organizations. Indicators are identified where impacts have been substantially achieved: website hits (total hits 7,046,058 with a monthly average of 587,172) and number of visits (total 624,970 with a monthly average of 52,081), external queries generated from website users have increased, online social networking sites (Facebook 8,500 and Twitter - 3,000), and the World Fair Trade Day website (total hits 4,084,359 with a monthly average of 340,363; total visits 51,907 with a monthly average 4,325). Compared to the previous year (2009) WFTO websites overall hits for 2010 have increased by 35%, and the number of visits by 52%. Except for the WFTO website, the other external communication channels were recent exploits of the potential of the internet. The social networking channels have grown rapidly over the year, and presently continue to increase. The global office has received a significant number of reactions, through the website, ranging from the use of the WFTO logo by non-members, joining the WFTO to product sourcing. Notable among these inquiries are interests in joining the WFTO from small businesses and online retailers, product sourcing and business to business link-up. This is reflected in the number of members that joined the WFTO in 2010. Internal Communication In the late part of the year, a significant move was undertaken to address the internal communication of the network. A weekly communication by the Chief Executive is sent every Monday. This weekly communication addressed the need of the members to understand better the operations at the Global Secretariat and to encourage dialogue with members to enhance transparent communication and proactive participation. It has received positive feedback from members who feel better informed and have taken advantage to express concerns and opinions. These feedbacks have greatly helped improve service delivery. Branding A regular monitoring on the logo revealed that members who have not renewed their membership registration by undergoing the monitoring process are still using the old IFAT logo. Regular reminders and an improved monitoring of brand use will help to avoid unauthorized use. World Fair Trade Day 2010: A Big Day for the Planet! We have witnessed extraordinary events in all continents. 417 have been officially reported to us worldwide. No doubt, more celebrations have taken place but were not registered. In Africa, tree planting has been a novelty. The Swaziland Fair Trade Network, SWIFT, planted trees along a major road in the country with the help of school children. Latin America has hosted conferences, seminars and Fair Trade tasting and exhibitions in various events throughout the region. Other attractive events have been organized like Fair Trade fashion shows and open houses events like the one celebrated in lvngen, Sweden, where consumers tasted Fair Trade products while listening to world music. In the US, creative activities took place like the Manhattan College's Intramural Sports program hosting a month long Fair Trade Frisbee League in celebration of the WFTDay 2010. Oceania has celebrated it with stalls, give-aways, coffee carts, Fair Trade themed activities and promotions in Cathedral Square Markets and Fair Trade Fiestas. Dhaka, capital of Bangladesh, organized a day long workshop on Fair Trade and a rally with its artisans, partners, media and other Fair Trade friends. These are just samples of what took place on 8 May 2010. Detailed information can be found on the World Fair Trade Day website http://www.wftday.info. The WFTDay Declaration, core message on WFTDay has been supported by more than one thousand entities from 57 countries, among them Governments through specific ministries, local authorities, representatives of UN bodies, social movements, NGOs, universities and Fair Trade Organizations. On World Fair Trade Day, citizens have expressed their support to Fair Trade as a concrete and efficient response to poverty, economic and global food crises, as well as climate change. Fair Trade 8

ensures sustainable conditions for production in fair terms, and advocates for a fair economic system and international trading rules. The global WFTDay celebration was coordinated by WFTO Europe. Congratulations to the European region for the successful WFTDay coordination! World Fair Trade Day has become an essential milestone for the global Fair Trade movement, and has helped members on public awareness raising, market access and Fair Trade consumption.
Asha Handicraft, based in Mumbai, India, is the first WFTO member from the South to receive a certification of compliance. Asha exports a wide range of Indian crafts and currently runs four retail shops in Mumbai. The external audit was conducted by two Dhaka-based auditors. Throughout the year, regional pilots from Africa, Asia and Latin America started the Baseline Assessments of their organizations and their supply chain in accordance with the SFTMS requirements. The process has been an important learning process for each individual organization under the guidance of the appointed facilitators. In October 2010, at the Cordoba AGM, WFTO members voted on key SFTMS issues, which were identified at the Nepal AGM in 2008. The decisions are as follows: The SFTMS will be a closed system, i.e., open to WFTO members only, for the first two years after the final approval of the SFTMS Standard, until a final decision is made at the 2013 AGM. Board and Management shall explore other ways of certifying FTOs without necessarily having to work with third party certifiers such as FLO and others. WFTO shall use its own logo for the SFTMS. Board and Management shall continue piloting and improving the proposed system of developing indicators for SFTMS. Membership has noted the revisions made on "Scope" and "First Purchase" in the Draft Standard Version 03. These two issues shall continue to be discussed until a final version is presented for approval by members in the May 2011 AGM. Any WFTO member that has completed the SFTMS implementation process under Draft Standard Version 02 shall be awarded the use of an interim mark until a final SFTM logo has been approved by the membership.

The 24 producer organizations went through an elaborate value chain analysis using a product to diagnose aspects that deny producers a competitive advantage in the market. Among the common areas of concern across the groups include product design and development, production quality assurance, coding and packaging, market research and poor links to local market opportunities such as conferences, hotels, etc., as well as pre-shipment procedures. Through MAP, 15 producers in the pilot were represented at the European Ethical Trade and Fair Trade Marketplace (ETFAM) Fair in September 2010. There was general positive feedback on the new look African product promotion. Most of the products presented at the fair passed as acceptable to the European market, in terms of quality and pricing. Contacts made during the fair were circulated to the producers for subsequent follow up. Monitoring and certification In 2010, COFTAs monitoring and certification focused on the implementation of the Sustainable Fair Trade Management System (SFTMS) pilots with the support of Belgium Technical Cooperation (BTC). The pilots targeted 30 producers from 5 countries, namely: Senegal, South Africa, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. However, forty producer organizations from the five countries were identified and taken through SFTMS implementation training, representing 133% success rate. The distribution of the pilots includes: Uganda (11), Rwanda (6), South Africa 8, Senegal (9) and Tanzania (6). In addition, 5 producer organizations from Kenya, that have already familiarity with the SFTMS process, chose to implement the system, bringing to 45 the total number of organization engaged in the pilots. The Kenyan producers participated in an SFTMS sensitization forum jointly organized by COFTA and Peace Corps. A number of pilots were already gearing up for audit by the end of the year. From COFTAs internal monitoring indicators, at least 30% of the 40 producers participating in the SFTMS pilots are ready for external audit by the end of December 2010, 10% over the project target. The project stimulated the growth of membership. On average, there was an average of 84% growth in membership from countries where SFTMS pilots were being implemented, over 30% of the project target of 50%. The highest growth was recorded in Rwanda and Senegal at 150% respectively, with 2 out of the 3 new members were implementing SFTMS. The lowest growth was recorded in Tanzania, at 40%, given the relatively high number of producers from that country who were already members of COFTA. Advocacy Activities during the period under review build on the work done in the previous year that focused on advocacy training and sensitization workshops for local producers. Whereas further work was still required, advocacy strategies were shifted to the international level, along the advocacy issues identified by stakeholders. COFTA had a chance to present the overall advocacy strategy to the membership during the regional conference for information and input. The strategy is linked to that of the WFTO and the Fair Trade Advocacy Office (FTAO) based in Brussels, Belgium. Climate change is one of the advocacy issues identified by stakeholders. COFTA participated at a joint Fair Trade Foundation and International Institute for Environmental and Development (IIED) meeting for organizations advocating against Climate Change, held in Nairobi, Kenya. COFTA also participated at the World Ecological Forum, held in Gotland, Sweden. Finally, COFTA had initiated a small study on the role of Fair Trade in reducing vulnerability to climate change building a low carbon economy in a rural African community using NDm community in Senegal as the case study. The study is expected to be concluded by March 2011. Among the other key forums that COFTA participated in were EU Experts Meeting, EPAs forum and the African Trade Network (ATN). The Fair Trade Advocacy Office (FTAO) - EU experts meeting held in Brussels, Belgium, sought to ensure that trade measures taken by EU reflected the reality of the 12

different regions. The International seminar on Economic Partnership Agreements (EPAs), held in Brussels, Belgium, sought to bring participants up to speed with the latest developments regarding the agreements. The ATN annual review meeting held in Yaound, Cameroon, reviewed the effects of climate change on Africa.
Volunteer-Internship Program of WFTO ASIA (VIP ASIA). VIP ASIA intends to build a pool of Fair Trade advocates through volunteerism. More specifically, it aims to foster a deeper understanding of Fair Trade by facilitating opportunities for learning and interaction for individuals who are interested, sympathetic, or advocates of Fair Trade. The program also provides a venue where volunteers can actively take part in the daily operations of Fair Trade organizations thus building a supplementary human resource for the Country Networks and the Regional office and to the Fair Trade Organization largely. The VIP accommodates college/university students and faculty members, young as well as established professionals who would want to spend their time, skills and experience working with Fair Trade organizations across Asia, specifically in countries where WFTO ASIA members are present. Six persons have expressed to join in the program. Highlights on the SFTMS process Of the 32 SFTMS pilots, 10% are ready for external audit, 75% have on-going programs for continuous improvements of gaps identified during the baseline assessment, and 15% are completing their baseline assessment. By the end of the first quarter in 2011, 90% of the pilots are ready for external audit and certification. WFTO ASIA has 15 SFTMS Facilitators in 6 countries in Asia assisting the FTOs in the implementation of SFTMS. The next step is to develop the audit protocol and accredit external auditors. 2010 WFTDay Celebration in Asia The WFTDay celebration in Asia was well participated. Big events were organized in Thailand, Philippines, Indonesia, Nepal, India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Korea and other Asian countries! Please see the complete regional report for more details.

leading national events of their respective countries. A total of 427 events were reported in 52 countries. However, there were events that were monitored but not registered and the number of global events could be higher than what is officially reported. The WFTDay is an initiative of WFTO. This initiative has been globally celebrated by both members and non-member organizations. The increased impact is a positive indication that WFTO is reaping the fruits of its hard work in spreading the message of Fair Trade and the genuine voice of Fair Trade. Fair Trade Retailers seminar The regional office continues to conduct a region-wide retailing seminar with Fair Trade retailers to provide venue for knowledge sharing and continuous improvement to achieve high sales turnover, and consumer advocacy. In March, various European organizations, networks and retailers attended a two day seminar. Attendees were representatives of associations and NGOs, Torrelavega Town Hall, Cantabria government, Cantabria University, WFTO Europe members, and nine representatives of national platforms (Czech Fair Trade Association, Society for Fair Trade, Swedish Worldshop Association, Vedegylet Hungary, Polish Fair Trade Association, Fair Trade Denmark, Spanish Fair Trade National Platform, Kooperattiva Kummerc Gust Malta, and the German Worldshop Association. The seminar was composed of two different sessions: a public event on Thursday 11 March and the European Seminar on Friday, 12 March. The first event, celebrated in Torrelavega, was focused on the call for citizens to understand and adapt Fair Trade in their lives, bringing to society the fundamental principles of the movement. The European Seminar in Santander discussed the preparation for World Fair Trade Day 2010. Events framed in the EU project with local authorities The project European coalition between local authorities and the Fair Trade organizations to increase their economic and institutional impact funded by the EU was implemented throughout the year. This project seeks to create synergies and direct cooperation between Local Authorities and member Fair Trade organizations of the WFTO Europe. Framed in this project, the following events took place: Coordination meeting in Seville, February 10. Representatives of FAMSI and WFTO Europe met to lay out the chronogram and planning of the work. Tasks were divided between the partners and the structure of coordination was defined for the future. European Conference "Dialogue between Fair Trade Organizations and Local Authorities" in Cordoba, October 18-21. Roundtables and workshops with Local Authorities and Fair Trade Organizations were conducted to create synergies between the two groups. There were around 120 participants from more than 25 countries. Attendees to this event were diverse: academe, Fair Trade Organizations, Local Authorities, students, NGOs representatives, journalists, and many more. The main outcome of this meeting was a political declaration, which was presented in the following event organized in Brussels. This event provided the opportunity to hold a reflection about the need to promote Fair Trade in a joint European commitment taken up by the Local Authorities. Dialogue with European institutions on Fair Trade in Brussels, October 27. Representatives of the European Parliament, the Committee of the Regions and several European Commission DGs (Agriculture, Trade and Development) attended and participated in this dialogue. The FTAO was also present as well as our WFTO Europe board member, Marijke Visser. The meeting took place last October 27 in the Andalusia Regional Government Delegation in Brussels as a follow up of the one held in Cordoba. A deep reflection took place in the context of the current global economic crisis. The European Unions support to a more sustainable economy and the construction of a social economy based on responsible production and consumption models have been discussed. During the discussion, Fair Trade was presented as addressing the development and environmental challenges, especially in developing countries.

It was completed in October with the signing of an agreement. The outcomes of the consortium were: the "Business Plan for 2011-2015" and "Strengthening the access of women in the marketplace."
looking at whether such certification could be linked to or be part of the broader global fair trade movement. Work on the reports conclusions is ongoing. Fair Trade Futures Conference In September the Fair Trade Futures Conference, convened by the Fair Trade Federation, brought 762 fair trade activists from five continents to Quincy, Maryland, for the largest Fair Trade event in North American history, seeking collaborative ways to address global challenges and learn how to advance the Fair Trade movement in North America. 2010 WFTDay Highlights All 75 Ten Thousand Villages retail stores across the US celebrated WFTDay by serving free Fair Trade coffee (as part of the FTRN Fair Trade Coffee Break), with live world music and Fair Trade chocolate samples at many locations.

European Union and Fair Trade FTAO has continued its dialogue with the European Commission (EC) in 2010 on the need for coherent policies for Fair Trade. This has included a call for policies to go beyond the limited assessment that Fair Trade is a consumer assurance scheme. One of the welcoming developments of 2010 was the confirmation by the EC on the creation of a focal point for Fair Trade. The official will dedicate up to 40% of their time to Fair Trade issues and coordinate with colleagues from other EC Directorate General. FTAO continues to hold regular dialogue meetings with this focal point official. To encourage this broader thinking on coherent policies for Fair Trade, FTAO held a number of meetings during 2010 with EC officials, including the EU Trade Commissioner Karel De Gucht (in the context of a wider trade & development NGO delegation), as well as officials in the DirectorateGenerals for Trade, Agriculture, Enterprise, Internal Market & Services, Employment & Social Affairs, Development and EuropeAid. The Fair Trade Advocacy Office and the European Fair Trade Association (EFTA) Public Affairs project have been closely following the development of the EC guidelines for Social Public Procurement. Through coordinated advocacy work, they were able to share with relevant EU decisionmakers best practice examples of how contracting authorities in Europe are already supporting Fair Trade Public Procurement and convey the areas in which constructive EC guidance is needed. The European Parliament Fair Trade Working Group is an informal working group, chaired by Linda McAvan (S&D, UK) which consists of about 40 MEPs representing all the main political groups. FTAO is the secretariat for this working group and there have been 3 meetings in 2010. A Fair Trade Breakfast, in the context of Belgium Fair Trade Fortnight, was held in the European Parliament on 7 October 2010, with the participation of 50 Members of the European Parliament (MEPs). The event was hosted by Linda McAvan MEP, Chair of the European Parliament Fair Trade Working Group. Keynote speeches were delivered by Professor Olivier De Schutter, United Nations Rapporteur on the Right to Food, and Mr Joao Aguiar Machado, Deputy Director-General for Trade of the European Commission. The breakfast served to celebrate the achievements of the EU institutions, in particular the European Parliament, with regards to Fair Trade. It was also a chance for FTAO to reiterate its message for the need for coherent policies on Fair Trade. The Committee of the Regions adopted on 10 February 2010, a very favourable opinion on Fair Trade, calling for a European strategy for Fair Trade for local and regional authorities. European Union and Trade Justice On 9 November, the EC issued a Communication explaining the EUs trade policy agenda for the coming years. FTAO participated in the consultation and a number of meetings including regularly attending civil society dialogue meetings. FTAO also issued a press release in response to the publication of the communication. The EC kicked-off in 2010 the process for the revision of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) for the post-2013 period. FTAO participated in the consultation and a number of meetings. FTAO also compiled a position paper to layout the main messages from the Fair Trade movement. The EC wishes to re-launch the European Unions (EU) Internal Market. As part of this re-launch, there are a number of policy areas that the EC has started to refine its thinking on. One of these is how to introduce more fairness in retailing in Europe. In response to this, FTAO submitted input to the consultation, held meetings with the EC and participated in a number of expert groups. On 16 June 2010, the FTAO, in cooperation with the European Trade Network (ETN), organized a meeting with the representatives from the trade departments of the Member States Permanent Representations to the EU. The aim of the meeting was to exchange views on the link between trade 19
WFTO Annual Report 2010. All Rights Reserved.
and development and to try and establish a more institutionalized cooperation. The meeting was seen as a positive first step to this cooperation and it was agreed to hold regular meetings per Council Presidency. International Organizations and Fair Trade The Ethical Trade Fact Finding Process (ETFFP) was successfully concluded in September 2010. The final recommendations lay down interesting conclusions on how to increase consumer confidence in ethical trade, in particular ethical claims. The conclusions are in line with the Fair Trade networks and ISEAL policies in support of robust and credible voluntary standards systems. From May 2009 to April 2010, FTAO coordinated the Towards greater voice of small producer organizations in trade policies & practices, a joint advocacy project with COFTA, WFTO-Latin America and WFTO-Asia as partners. The project was funded by CORDAID. In 2010, FTAO rounded up the project by preparing the penultimate meeting with the partners in Nairobi, Kenya; finalizing the joint advocacy strategy and related project proposal for phase 2 of the project; submitting the project proposal to the European Commission; coordinating the external evaluation; and compiling the final narrative and financial reports. As yet there has been no funding secured for the second phase. The main findings and the 2 main objectives from the joint advocacy strategy identified during the project have been incorporated into the future FTAO EU advocacy strategy. FTAO Communications and Networking Communications. A number of new FTAO communication tools were launched in 2010 to communicate better with the Fair Trade networks and the FTAO lobby targets. For external communications these tools are: external Newsletter (released quarterly), press releases (response to the Committee of the Regions adoption of a Fair Trade Opinion, World Fair Trade Day, European Parliament report on social public procurement and the new trade agenda launched by the European Commission), position papers (response to the launch of a number of public consultations by the European Commission, and EU trade strategy and the Common Agricultural Policy Post-2013), website (improved in 2010), FTAO material (FTAO was able to create a number of external documents including testimonial FTAO flyers, Producer Posters and Sustainable Development posters to be used during future events), and the Fair Trade Public Procurement Model (FTAO inputted substantially in the creation of the EFTA Public Affairs Buying Fair Trade: European Model on Fair Trade Public Procurement). Internal and semi-internal communications: Members-only part of the FTAO website (internal section of the website was created), monthly internal advocacy bulletin, Communications Milestones (this document gives an overview of the main relevant external policy milestones and what internal/external communications FTAO is planning), FTAO Internal Monitoring, (the purpose of the FTAO monitoring is to serve as radar-screen for EU and International policy debates & developments linked to the FTAO areas of work. It is a safety net that we are not missing important developments), European Parliament (EP) Internal Monitoring (due to the dynamism and complexity of EP work, a specific internal FTAO monitoring for the EP was also put in place, as a tool to monitor the EP so it can be up to date on what the EP is working on and to see if there are relevant developments concerning Fair Trade related topics.), MEP Analysis (An analysis has been created to quickly identify Members of the European Parliament Fair Trade Working Group and other influential MEPs in key committees.), other internal tools. Networking. FTAO participated in a number of civil society networks, such as the Spring Alliance; EU Civil Society Group on International Development; Alternative Trade Mandate; European Trade Network; Social Procurement Coalition; and Brussels Trade Bunch. FTAO had the opportunity to participate in internal Fair Trade movement meetings such as the General Assembly of the World Fair Trade Organization Europe, EFTA Managers meeting, and FLO

Information Days. FTAO also met with Fair Trade Forum India, Fair Trade Forum Indonesia, the Kenyan Fair Trade Forum and the Fair Trade Towns Campaign. FTAO made a number of presentations at official and civil society organized events involving for example EU institutions, Local Authorities and Consumer Cooperatives. Management and Governance There have been a number of internal management improvements in 2010 for FTAO. Three new FTAO expert groups were formed: Fair Trade systems expert group, EU and trade justice expert group and Fair Trade Public Procurement expert group. The main mission of the expert groups is to provide expertise and advice, not to represent or advocate for an organization or networks views. Members come from across the Fair Trade movement. They also serve as network to exchange information on their field of expertise. Each expert group held there first face-to-face meeting in 2010, to discuss the mandate of the group, the pressing issues to be dealt with and its future work including helping to develop the FTAO EU advocacy strategy from 2011.
