Abstract:
A brief research about the Fairtrade Certification, starting from the changed global environment, orientated always more through globalization and exploitation of workers. Secondly, an analysis of the instruments that can now limit the global power of multinationals: the Corporate Social Responsibility and its most important tools: Codes of Conduct, Social Report and Certifications. Finally, an analysis of the Fairtrade Certification, showing how it works and how it influences the lives of people working in developing countries. In conclusion I would like to give the practical approach of Fairtrade on the products that we buy everyday, analysing three businesses, Coop, Lidl and Nespresso, in which this Certification gives an added value to the final product.
