When you're on vacation, the low prices of weavings, jewellry and other crafts is tempting. But how do we make sure we aren't getting a bargain at the expense of somebody else?
A replay from The Green Planet Monitor [7] Radio Series where Victoria visits a craft market in Antigua, Guatemala with David Barth of World Accord [8]; and to a mountain village to meet with Mayan craftswomen. Back in Canada, she gets some perspectives from Ten Thousand Villages [9] and Latin Treasures [8] in Hamilton.
