• Trade Aid Education Series: our publications on global justice issues
  
  This series focuses on a single issue in each publication and presents up-to-date research from around the world with links to Trade Aid partners.
  
• Learning Issues looks at access to education, a concern for all developing communities around the world.
• How fair is fair? discusses the concept of fair trade internationally, certification issues and Trade Aid's approach to fair trade.
  
• Slavery today examines the reality of modern day slavery and  how fair trade organisations such as Trade Aid suport growing demands for a slave free- world.

  The idea of these publications is to provide an opportunity for the New Zealand public to begin thinking through some of the complexities of achieving development in our global community. These publications can be used as tools for teachers to start their students discussing some of the complexities we raise, thinking through various solutions, and continuing on a longer term learning path. Our ultimate aim as a thinking organisation is to have highly engaged, critical thinking, active supporters who appreciate that a development organisation needs to be dynamic in its approach to development. We need to be open to new ways of working in order to continue providing support that best addresses the problems faced in global communities.
  
  We hope you will enjoy reading the publications in this series and will encourage your friends and family to read these as well. Teachers - we also encourage you to order these as excellent teaching resources for your students.  As always we welcome your thoughts and feedback.
