ENDING POVERTY
Oxfam is a global movement of people, working together to end the injustice of poverty. Working with partners, we find practical and innovative ways for people to lift themselves out of poverty and thrive. From sanitation and clean water, to enabling more girls to get an education, we won’t stop until every person on the planet can enjoy a life free from poverty.
EXTREME INEQUALITY & ESSENTIAL SERVICES
From campaigning to end tax avoidance, to encouraging investment in universal education and healthcare, we are working to make sure that people living in the most vulnerable communities have a voice when it comes to their future. Poverty and inequality can only be beaten if everyone has an equal share of power and resources.


FOOD, CLIMATE & NATURAL RESOURCES
In a world full of food, one in eight people goes to bed hungry every night. Meanwhile, smallholder farmers around the globe are witnessing first-hand the impacts of climate change on growing seasons and their crops. Food prices are going up while almost a billion of the world’s poorest people find it hard to feed their families.
We want a fairer and more sustainable global food system so that everyone has enough to eat. That means investing in small-scale food producers, helping farmers adapt and become resilient to climate change, and securing and protecting their access to land.
GENDER JUSTICE & WOMEN’S RIGHTS
Millions of women and girls who face daily discrimination and injustice struggle to achieve their full potential. Women should have the right to play an equal role in shaping the policies, structures and decisions that affect their lives and society as a whole. We are working to bring about these changes by supporting women to become leaders in their communities, have the same rights as men and free themselves from violence.


CONFLICTS & DISASTERS
When disaster strikes, we respond by saving lives and rebuilding communities. We provide clean water, food, other vital supplies and protection to those forced to flee their homes due to conflict or natural disaster, and help rebuild affected communities.
WATER & SANITATION
Diseases from unsafe water and lack of basic sanitation kill more people every year than any other cause. There are no excuses – we all have the right to clean, safe water.
Water is central to almost every part of our work: we provide life-saving clean water, and sanitation and hygiene education in some of the world’s poorest countries, as well as in areas struck by disaster or conflict.
