On July 20, 2026, Apikri actively participated in a significant virtual meeting held via Zoom, uniting the Indonesian Fair Trade Forum (FFTI) with academic representatives from Oxford University. The high-profile discussion served as a collaborative platform to explore international partnerships and advance shared values centered around ethical commerce and sustainable development.
During the session, Apikri demonstrated its steadfast commitment to the global fair trade movement by contributing insights from its grassroots artisan community. The dialogue highlighted how grassroots cooperative models in Indonesia align with academic research and global initiatives promoted by institutions like Oxford University, aiming to create more equitable market structures for marginalized producers.
Apikri 's engagement in this collaborative forum underscores its dedication to strengthening international networks and amplifying the voice of local craftspeople on the global stage. By supporting this partnership with Oxford University, APIKRI hopes to foster greater awareness of fair trade principles and drive meaningful, long-term impact for sustainable trade practices worldwide.
