Amazing Women 2013, Women and Fair Trade Program

Here are some pictures from our memorable Amazing Women exhibit 2013, subtitled Women and Fair Trade. We wanted to demonstrate the impact that fair trade has been making on women. It was a simple, intimate program of G&G's partners and supporters. Of course the participants of our capacity building program were there and Nadeth even demonstrated how to properly wear a T'boli malong. We hope you enjoy the photos
