Assess the relevance of Fairtrade coffee price values, explore, and consult with Fairtrade stakeholders on the values and alternative pricing models that provide improved scenarios for conventional and organic production under Fairtrade terms in both high and low-market price periods.

Understand the importance of setting a Fairtrade Minimum Price as a baseline price for small-scale producer organisations, coffee farmers, and traders, and how it relates to long-term market prices.

Analyse the long term behaviour of international coffee market prices and assess the implications from the producer and market perspective.
