About Oxfam Australia

Oxfam Australia's purpose is to relieve and eliminate poverty. We challenge the systems that lead to inequality, while providing aid where it's needed most. We do this through overseas aid and development, and through humanitarian work and advocacy that is grounded in our work with communities experiencing poverty. Oxfam Australia works almost exclusively through a partnership development model with local civil society organisations. This year, we worked with 226 partners across 33 countries. We supported development and advocacy activities, and contributed to 22 Oxfam Confederation emergency responses, reaching 1.4 million people, including 740,000 women. Oxfam Australia also walks alongside, and in the service of, First Nations communities as they work towards realising their visions for generational change. The organisation undertook programs and partnerships that contributed to the advancement of First Nations justice across Australia, supporting First Nations communities and providing technical and capacitystrengthening support to First Nationsled initiatives. This included efforts that amplify community leadership, developing education and awareness building campaigns and connecting First Nations leaders to global movements and conversations.
