Fair Trade

Can someone explain to me how Fair Trade works?
This isnt for a paper or anything. I actually used to be involved with efforts to get fair trade coffee on my school's campus. Now a friend of mine is asking me to explain to him what it is and since this was years ago, i dont have a lot of info anymore. 
Aside from living wage being paid to farmers, what is involved in the process?
