Why 10-year-old Momena had to leave her school and take up domestic work with her mother, due to a US trade agreement throwing Bangladeshi textile workers out of work, is one of the stories on a lively new site from Oxfam. Make Trade Fair is a campaigning site based on Oxfam’s report Rigged rules and double standards: trade, globalization, and the fight against poverty. Case studies illustrate the difficulties faced by people in developing countries, and there is access to the report, reactions to it and useful weblinks.
