Fatima Hasanain from the Institute for Gender, Race, Sexuality and Social Justice at the University of British Columbia is joining the EDGES Team. Fatima is a Master’s student working with Dr Leila Harris on issues of gender and representation within certification standards applied to cocoa bean production. More specifically, she is using feminist critical discourse analysis to look into Fair Trade and similar certification codes and their effects on the populations they apply to.
Welcome, Fatima!
