Campaign
Campaigning is at the heart of everything we do at Oxfam. As a volunteer campaigner, you’ll be part of our global movement for change – joining the fight to End Inequality and Beat Poverty, as well as ensuring the Right to Refuge for millions of people displaced around the world.
To challenge global injustice, we first need to change the rules. To do this, we influence governments and decision-makers on important issues, urging them to make decisions that benefit those living in poverty and facing crisis. However, we could not do this without our amazing network of volunteer campaigners from across the Island of Ireland.
Once you’ve signed up as a campaigner, you’ll receive regular invitations to take part in online and offline campaign actions, Oxfam events and training as well as the opportunity to join our festival team. You decide what actions you’d like to get involved in.
Online actions include participating in Twitter storms or contacting politicians about the issues that matter. Offline actions and stunts are usually held in Dublin and Belfast and focus on the important moments we want to highlight, or before decisions or events we want to influence.
Each year, Oxfam attends some of the biggest festivals and events across the island of Ireland with our volunteer campaigners, who highlight our campaigns and inspire festival-goers to support them. You can find out more about being part of our festivals team here.
