      Distinguished Dartmouth professors from Geography and Economics Departments.

Where: Cutter Shabazz first floor Lounge
When: 7-8 pm, Tuesday May 24th

Dinner from Mai Thai will be served!

The Discussion will cover the following topics, be sure to come with questions  
as well!

1. What is fair trade? Who are the different actors in fair trade and what are  
their motivations for being involved?
2. What are corporations' roles in the fair trade movement?
3. What are the benefits/losses of fair trade (economic and social)? How does  
it help/hurt small producers/businesses?
