Oxfam Italia, which joined the Oxfam international confederation in 2010, was born from the experience of Ucodep, an Italian non-governmental organization for over 30 years committed with passion and professionalism to improve the living conditions of thousands of poor people in the world and give them the power and energy to build one's own future, to control and direct one's life, to exercise one's rights.
Oxfam Italia is committed men and women, within a vast global movement, to find lasting solutions that defy poverty and injustice in Italy and in the southern hemisphere. Oxfam wants a world where all people have access to healthy eating, a home and a job. A world in which schools, hospitals and aqueducts work and are accessible to everyone.
