Background:
Oxfam, a global movement dedicated to fighting poverty and promoting social justice, has been a key player in Bangladesh for over fifty years. Our journey began in 1970, providing aid to cyclone victims. During the 1971 Liberation War, Oxfam supported the people of Bangladesh, earning the title of Friend of the Bangladesh Liberation War in 2012.
For the past 52 years, Oxfam in Bangladesh has been a reliable development partner, focusing on economic development, poverty alleviation, women’s empowerment, and climate justice. The development experience in Bangladesh underscores the significance of functional informal institutions, effective regulation, and robust state capacity.
Looking ahead to the next 50 years, Bangladesh faces a range of challenges, including poverty, gender inequality, climate change, and human security. Oxfam envisions a vibrant and equitable society where both women and men are empowered. We collaborate with civil society organizations, NGOs, universities, private sector companies, and government entities. By influencing policy, building capacity, and mobilizing voices, we aim for transformative social change. Our mission centers on gender equality, economic justice, and resilience.
Throughout this journey, Oxfam remains a beacon of hope, advocating for a Bangladesh where every individual’s voice is heard, and resilient communities flourish.
