Description

Explore the complex relationship between global trade standards and the lived experiences of women in Kenya. This book by Routledge examines how fair and ethical trade practices often reflect the values of consumers, NGOs, and food retailers rather than the needs of local producers. By focusing on women smallholder farmers, this work investigates how diverse ethical standards affect their ability to achieve sustainable livelihoods. Readers will gain insight into how global regulations interact with local cultural and environmental contexts. The text addresses the gendered nature of ethical trade and asks whether current standards truly reflect the priorities and values of those working on the ground. It provides a necessary look at how social justice and environmental concerns are understood across different scales, from local smallholder farms to international markets. This is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of gender, agriculture, and global trade policy.
