Comment by Sabine Theresia on February 9, 2009 at 6:04pm: Thank you so much for organizing the production of the iPeace Tshirts under the best conditions available. And presenting them together with the film about their production and selling is ingenious.
There are already some fair and ecological produced clothes available in Germany. But there could be much more. In our 'Weltladen' (fair trade shop) in the center of Cologne, we (an association of some dozens of volunteers) don't sell clothes (there is not enough space left to present them). But I really would like to support this factory in Bethlehem with more than ordering some Tshirts for me. It is sooo important for the Palestinians to have good jobs and a sufficient income. And when politics can not improve the situation, a growing economy in combination with a fair trade connecting the Palestinians with many democratic countries will surely do.
Does anybody know, if the owner of this factory in Bethlehem also makes contracts for selling on his own? I would like to get the Weltladen-Association and also the big importeurs of fair trade products in Germany (gepa, el puente, dwp ...) in contact with this palestinian factory, to develop some designs on their own or to order those products, that are already available). And I can imagine, that - if the Weltladen association would make a nice design showing a good picture / symbol for fair trade - our shop could offer one special model as well.
If there is somebody able to answer my question about the direct trade with the producers in Betlehem, please let me know. Sabine

Comment by Irit Hakim-Keller on February 7, 2009 at 9:02pm: I'd like to make a clarification to my comment down here ( an hour ago):
of course the money for the t shirts is going to Gaza. no doubt.
i was saying that the shipping fee is very high ( at least to Isarel) and this money -of the shipping - is not going to Gaza...

Comment by caroline b on February 7, 2009 at 7:52pm: Thanks for taking action in a positive direction! I look forward to wearing my new t-shirts...

Comment by Irit Hakim-Keller on February 7, 2009 at 7:13pm: you can buy the iPeace shirt on line. unfortunately the shipping is double price and i don't think this money will be going to gaza...
