Fair trade.
Oh of course, it's more clear, thank you :)
These events are often marked politicaly and we have to take care to
not take part to one or another of this political marking, we have to
stay neutral in this area, whatever our own personal opinions are.
Well, fair trade NGOs are usually fairly (no pun intended) political
since they question capitalist exploitation of workers in the third
world.
Although if you mean "political party affiliated" by political, I think
you are safe. Fair trade movements are only loosely related to the "new
left", not the Clinton/Blair third way but rather the Attac/Sud (to
give French examples) kind of left.
Intellectually speaking I consider them very close to the open source
movement. Even though the aims are totally different.
