Oxfam Canada is a branch of the international Oxfam Confederation, a group of 15 organizations working together to find lasting solutions to poverty and injustice.

It works with local partners in over 20 countries to eradicate poverty and injustice, with a focus on women’s rights and gender equality.

Oxfam Canada’s annual operating budget is sourced from a combination of individual donors and institutional funders including CIDA.

Oxfam Canada works with over 100 partner organizations in developing countries; tackling the root causes of poverty and inequity and helping people to create self-reliant and sustainable communities. In Canada, Oxfam is active in education, policy advocacy and building a constituency of support for our work.

They support organizations in poor communities overseas in their struggle to secure basic rights. Oxfam's advocacy and campaigns for just policies are rooted in the knowledge and experience gained in that struggle.
