Oxfam International
Oxfam Canada is a founding member of Oxfam International, a federation of 13 national Oxfams around the world.
In 1995, in order to provide a stronger voice internationally, Oxfam International was formed.(Visit Oxfam International's web-site.) This global federation increases the effectiveness of individual Oxfams through collaboration in overseas programming and playing a truly international role in advocacy.
The Oxfams work in response to humanitarian needs – regardless of race or creed – in more than 120 countries. Together, we raise over $350 million annually.
Oxfam International is registered in the Netherlands as a charitable foundation. Funding for Oxfam International staff and operations is provided by the affiliated Oxfam.
Oxfam International's Secretariat is based in Oxford, England. The U.S.-based Advocacy Office in Washington D.C. lobbies the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and United Nations on issues agreed to by all the Oxfam. Policy is decided by an international board, consisting of the Chair of the Board/ Trustees and Executive Director of the individual member Oxfam.
