The Association was privileged to host a delegation from South Africa, visiting Kenya under the auspices of Fairtrade Africa for a peer learning mission. The primary objective of the visit was to enhance their understanding and exchange best practices on championing social dialogue and collective bargaining; key pillars in promoting decent working conditions and sustainable industrial relations.
The delegation comprised representatives from the Food and Allied Workers Union (FAWU), workers’ representatives from the wine sector and Fairtrade Africa officials. As part of their engagement, the team had the opportunity to interact closely with the Association’s leadership and staff, gaining insights into the structure, mandate, and service offerings of the Association; particularly its role in facilitating harmonious labour relations within the sector.
