I just posted about a recent increase in the sales of Palestinian olive oil since the Gaza conflict. Now, I was able to locate some audio of Nasser Abufarha, the chairman of the Palestinian Fairtrade Association talking about the impacts of Fair Trade certification of Palestinian olive oil and the benefits the farmers have been seeing. Give it a listen. It's brought to you courtesy of the UK Guardian.
