Profile

Oxfam is a development, relief, and campaigning organisation that works with others to find lasting solutions to poverty and suffering around the world. It tries to achieve this in 3 main ways; campaigning for change, development work and emergency response.

Oxfam works with others to overcome poverty. Because amazing things happen when everyone plays their part.

This group therefore wants to show how students can fight poverty too. It’s surprisingly easy. Be aware, be moved, be involved. Be Humankind.
