That year, the International Coffee Organization decided that October 1st would be the ideal occasion to think about the dynamics surrounding one of the most consumed beverages in the world. This celebration also seeks to generate a healthy debate on fair trade coffee, analyze the problems and needs of coffee growers and open up reflections on new trends in coffee consumption and cultivation.
