Dianne Sharma-Winter is a New Zealand whose passion is India, and she spends much of her time there. She lives there, organises tours, gives advice, promotes fair trade and Ethical Travel along the way – here she writes about what all that means….
Ethical Travel
Ethical Travel involves a conscious choice to travel with a commitment to make conscious connections, to tread lightly on the planet and to become part of a global community.
It’s totally possible to explore India by building a bridge of experiences, I can connect you along your path to the best options for ethical travel by suggesting unique experiential travel options and accommodation and point out projects well worth your support and interest so that your tourist dollar is invested back into the communities you visit.
If India is a holiday of your lifetime then consider the good karma in this action! Support projects that empower women and their communities, travel to the very heart of India, meet people you will remember for a lifetime and leave with a heart bursting with memories.
The most important trip you may take in life is meeting people halfway. ~ Henry Boye
Fair Trade Buyers Tour
I have added a new service to my site, a buyers tour for people interested in ethical handmade products. The tour dates are open, we can arrange small groups of buyers or with single buyers.
- Are you looking for quality handmade Fair Trade products from India?
- Are you a buyer looking to source unique ethical products from India?
- Do you want to deal directly with the people who make the goods you want to sell in your marketplace?
If you are looking for a high quality product, where you can interact with designers to have your own unique brand or whether you simply want to support the very many small ethical fair trade artisans in India, then we can help you to help them! See More
