This is one of the many reasons that I believe in shopping smaller & more locally: TO END SLAVERY.
While this isn't a complete solution in and of itself, often, it allows you to see more of the steps that go into the finished product.
Take a look at your (estimated) slavery footprint here: http://slaveryfootprint.org
Remember: read labels & read up on the certification organizations if you can. Sometimes, fair trade isn't labelled.
Reminder to me: just because coffee feels like a good idea doesn't mean that it is fair trade.
