Oxfam Australia is part of a global movement of dedicated people working hard to fight poversty and injustice. We've been working with communities for more than 50 years, and have learnt that simply giving hand outs is not the answer. Instead, we provide people with the skills and resources to help them create their own solutions to poverty. We're here to help all people realise their basic human rights, which are too often denied by poverty. We are not affiliated with any religious or political parties.
