Oxfam
Oxfam is a confederation of non-governmental organizations that seeks to change the people’s lives for good by mobilizing the voices of the poor. The Oxfam is active in more than 90 countries; it works to reduce poverty, empowers those who are in need, and support the victims of disasters. Oxfam works for advocacy, development, and emergency in order to abolish poverty and help people who need it.
Poverty and Inequality:
Inequality cannot be fully understood in terms of income or wealth, but it is a question of power, and of access to justice. There are persons in various countries, who stay unemployed and are benefited with very less wages, no access to education and discriminated with the policies. These systemic problems are on a daily being countered by Oxfam via encouraging for fair trade, helping small business and fighting for policies that can be used to fairly spread income. With its education, empowering and activism advocacy, Oxfam seeks to strip societies of the systems that contribute to poverty and give everyone an opportunity.

Women’s Rights:
Women and girls are usually the worst affected by poverty as they have the extra privileges of being barred from education, healthcare, decent employment among other things. Oxfam understands that mobilizing women is central to the generation of strategies that eventually seeks to address the problem of poverty. As a global relief agency, Oxfam empowers women and girls to overcome the challenges of their lives by promoting women leadership, equal rights, education and women entrepreneurship. The success of empowered women is the success of communities which in turn will lead to healthier and accumulated societal benefits. Oxfam ’s intervention in this area can be said to include more than just the concept of living, but leading and thriving.
