Make the University of Technology Sydney Fairtrade
As a student or staff member of the University of Technology Sydney (UTS) I believe that our university should start the process to gain accreditation as a Fairtrade University.
The process should start with the University Council passing a resolution in support of Fairtrade.This resolution will encourage the creation of a Fairtrade Policy to facilitate meeting the minimum requirements for Fairtrade Universities.
UTS needs to think, change and do something about becoming a Fairtrade university, otherwise it will be left behind.
Why is this important?
Universities across Australia and the world are making the choice to become Fairtrade Universities. If the University of Technology Sydney doesn't start the process of gaining Fairtrade accreditation it will be left behind.
The Vice-Chancellor and President of the University Council, Professor Ross Milbourne needs to be told that UTS students and staff want our university to become a Fairtrade university. Please add your name to this petition if you, as a staff member or student of UTS believe we should start the process of becoming Fairtrade accredited.
