Oxfam has more than 75 years of experience. Last year we worked with 3, partner organizations in more than 60 countries. We know what it takes to end poverty and we are mobilizing people and resources worldwide to make it happen.
Decision makers rarely consult poor people about major issues like international trade agreements, climate change , or how wealthy countries administer foreign aid programs that are supposed to help them. We bring our passionate supporters together to take action on big issues that keep people poor.
Every action is powerful— signing a petition , pressuring big business , meeting with policymakers. When we speak as one, world leaders listen. Ending poverty is possible, but it will take every one of us. Each of us has a role to play. With the power of many voices speaking together, we can call on companies and legislators to change the laws and practices that keep people in poverty. We can also raise awareness and inspire action on some of the world's most urgent issues. We can't do this alone.
