What is Oxfam doing to help?
-
We help people build and equip schools
From bricks and mortar to books and management, helping schools get started is one of the first steps in ending poverty. Oxfam trains teachers, helps lobby local governments to get more children into school, and encourages communities to get girls into education.
-
We work to improve standards of health care
Low-cost clinics mean people can get the treatment they need, even in remote communities; while campaigning can bring free healthcare to mothers and children.
-
We campaign for health and education for all
We campaign internationally to make cheaper and better medicines available in developing countries. We also work with community leaders to lobby local governments to invest more in vital health services.
