ABOUT US
Trade Impact Foundation
Our work is closely driven by our values. We embrace a culture that is stubbornly inclusive and fiercely tolerant. Above all, we value Community, Learning and Respect.
Trade Impact Foundation is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit on a mission to promote a more impactful global marketplace, through engagement, education and interdisciplinary research at the intersection of human rights and the global economy.
We believe in a more sustainable future where the human rights impact of each business and consumer decision is visible.
Through this approach of market-driven progress, a more sustainable future is possible whereby the individual, seeking to balance their own interests with the interests of the global community, can factor in positive and negative human rights impact behind marketplace decisions.
