Fair Enjoyment and City History: Walk&Talk in Duisburg
This two-hour tour takes you through the heart of Duisburg city center and connects discovery, local history, and global responsibility. On September 30, 2026, at 5:00 PM, Walk&Talk Duisburg invites you to view the world of chocolate from a new perspective – from the cocoa bean to fair trade.
Cocoa, Trade, and Global Connections
At several interactive stations, participants will learn how cocoa is grown, the paths goods take in the global market, and why labels, the climate crisis, and stock market prices shape everyday life in the producing countries. The tour vividly illustrates how closely consumption behavior and global supply chains are interconnected.
An Urban Character Tour
The starting point is the Mercator Fountain in front of Duisburg City Hall at Burgplatz 19. From here, Duisburg's city center opens up as a vibrant stage for a guided tour with a short distance of about two kilometers. The route remains compact, easy to walk, and is ideal for anyone wishing to combine culture, education, and a city experience.
Focus on Fairtrade City Duisburg
The tour is organized by the steering group of the Fairtrade City Duisburg. The tour is part of Fair Trade Week 2026 and sends a strong message for sustainable consumption, fairer trade structures, and a more conscious relationship with one another. At the end, there will be a tasting of fair-trade chocolate that rounds off the theme delightfully.
