About Oxfam

Oxfam is a global movement of people working together to end the injustice of poverty. Founded in 1942, Oxfam has grown from a small group of individuals into a confederation of 20 NGOs operating in more than 90 countries. The organization aims to tackle the root causes of poverty and social injustice through various initiatives.

Core Activities:

• Humanitarian Response: Oxfam provides life-saving assistance during emergencies, ensuring that vulnerable communities receive food, clean water, and shelter.
• Development Programs: The organization implements long-term development programs that focus on education, health, and economic empowerment, helping communities build resilience.
• Advocacy: Oxfam campaigns for policy changes at local, national, and international levels to address issues such as climate change, inequality, and human rights.
• Fair Trade: Oxfam promotes fair trade practices, supporting farmers and producers in developing countries to receive fair prices for their goods.

Oxfam believes in the power of collective action and works with local partners to ensure that communities have a voice in decisions that affect their lives. The organization is committed to transparency and accountability, regularly publishing reports on its activities and impact.

With a vision of a just world without poverty, Oxfam strives to create lasting change by empowering individuals and communities. The organization relies on the support of donors, volunteers, and advocates to continue its vital work.
