Oxfam is an international confederation so autonomous and interdependent organisations working together with partners and local communities in more than 90 countries.
Oxfam part of a global movement for change, empowering people to create a future that is secure, just, and free from poverty. One person in three in the world lives in poverty. Oxfam is determined to change that world by mobilizing the power of people against poverty.
Oxfam South Africa leverages its local to global footprint and access to 60 years of experience working for change to advance its goals. We work at multiple levels, employing a range of strategies and combine long-term development programming with catalytic, responsive and timeous interventions.
South Africa has the potential to become a truly just, democratic and equitable society. One where all who live in it benefit from its wealth, can claim and enjoy rights and protections enshrined in the Constitution, and preserve the integrity of the natural environment for sustainable development. South Africa has a responsibility to use its voice, resources, global footprint and influence to contribute to a just African continent and world without poverty. South Africa inhabits a world where systems of injustice impact its potential – a just South Africa is not possible in an unjust world. It is this context that shapes Oxfam South Africa’s work, approaches and interventions.
