We will travel to the three corners of India, from Delhi and the magical Taj Mahal in Agra, to cochin in the south before finishing in Kolkata.
We will meet Traidcraft suppliers of crafts, including stone scultors in Agra and producers of stem ginger in the luscious setting of Kerala.
Visits to India's spectacular temples and monuments and the opportunity to get to know the people behind fair trade in their homes and in the workplace, provide you with an unique insight into this fascinating country.

Meet the producers
One of the groups you will be visiting is Tara Projects, a non-profit organisation based in Delhi, which works with over 25 community-based groups of artisans in Northern India.
They have been supplying Traidcraft for 20 years. Tara's objective is to help craft workers to achieve self-sufficiency by providing income-generating opportunities and developing marketing skills.
