Share Bismark's message to convince more MPs to Be the Change

Your MP has committed to be the change - now help convince others to join them

Fairtrade cocoa farmer and climate campaigner Bismark Kpabitey urges all UK MPs to sign the Be the Change pledge in this powerful video message. Because with a fairer income, farmers like Bismark all around the world could scale-up their efforts to take on the climate crisis through forest-friendly farming techniques.

Thanks to dedicated Fairtrade campaigners like you, your MP has already signed the Be the Change pledge. This commitment is a promise from your MP to stand up for climate justice and trade justice – which cannot be separated – throughout the next Parliament.

But you can still do your bit to stand with farmers like Bismark by sharing his message with friends and family, and encouraging more people get their MPs on board.

What is the Be the Change pledge?

The full wording of the Be the Change pledge is below. This is a simple commitment we are asking all MPs to make to join Fairtrade supporters like you in building a fairer future.

‘I commit to working with fair trade campaigners in my constituency, and in Parliament, to support farmers and workers affected by unfair trade all around the world and to build a fairer future.’ 

'I recognise that farmers and workers in lower-income countries urgently need fair pay and must be at the heart of the conversations on how to tackle the poverty and climate crisis that threatens their future.

'As an MP, I will do everything I can to make sure trade, development and climate policies contribute to this fairer future that benefits all.’
