In partnership with Middlesex University and Fairtrade UK
WINNER ANNOUNCED!
We are so excited to confirm that Marisa Mustafa’s piece: Mirage of Eden, won first place in the competition by a landslide! The judges were impressed with Marisa’s poetic control, her application of the competition theme in a way that was so very original, and her fresh, imaginative imagery that really brought this piece to life. We hope that Marisa will continue to write and look forward to seeing how she develops as a poet! In the meantime, do keep an eye out for her poem to be featured in this year’s printed edition of the Haringey Unchained magazine.

THE COMPETITION
This year’s Fairtrade fortnight celebration supported the awareness of Climate Change. Through various activities across schools, universities, colleges, places of worship and organisations around the world, all involved raised awareness of how everyone can play a part in “Choosing the World you want.”
In honour of this celebration, we’ve teamed up with Middlesex University. Students submitted poetry or spoken word pieces applying in some way the concept of: ‘Your vision of the world you want for farmers and workers worldwide, and the planet we share’.
OUR JUDGES
We wish the shortlist good luck in the next round! Stay tuned for the selection of the winning entry in March 2021.
