At Oxfam we believe all lives are equal and no-one should live in poverty.
We join forces with people who share this belief, to empower communities to build better lives for themselves.
That’s why we are there on the ground, not only to save lives in times of crisis, but also to develop lasting solutions.
Our work spans wide because there are many causes of poverty. That’s why we’re also in front of decision-makers, governments and corporations, and speak out on the big issues.
Together we are tackling poverty by changing minds, systems and lives.

Oxfam and Champasak University's Biogas Pilot Project
Limited or no electricity in rural Laos means families risk their health by cooking with fire indoors. This year, Oxfam partnered with Champasak University for a six-month pilot of converting pig manure into biogas as an alternate energy supply.
Phoukeo is biogas project participant. With the biogas digester connected, he has stopped burning firewood and now uses gas to cook, reducing associated health risks and time to prepare meals.

The impacts of flash flooding on rural communities

Climate change is altering our planet and the world we live in. Weather is more extreme, and natural disasters occur more frequently. Flooding, especially flash floods, are a constant threat. It endangers lives, damages homes, and impacts livelihoods. Even knee-high water levels can become deadly when individuals struggle to gauge depth and the current. The people impacted have all shared that ...

Climate change is bringing more challenges to farmers in Cambodia to grow crops. Hotter temperatures, drought, and flood are becoming more common and severe, and the river level has fluctuated abnormally. This has made it difficult for farmers to grow enough food to feed their families and sell surplus for income generation. To help the rural communities adapt to climate change, Oxfam, in colla...

BS
This is a pack of lies - the water level in the Pacific is stable, even NOA says so (but very very quietly).
Oxfam, you should be ashamed of yourselves - THE SEA LEVELS ARE NOT RISING. All the current data show that this is the case. Global warming is a myth, climate change possibly, but that is a different kettle of fish.
What crisis? Liars
after religion this the greatest scam.
strange as it may seem ,but I have heard all this bs about climate all before, it is now starting to repeat the cycle
no mention of the Chinese economy which emits the equivalent of Australia's entire annual CO2 emissions every 2 weeks ..... 2022 China 11.4 billion tons, Australia 2022 485 million tons
If you believe that there is a climate crisis then you are brainwashed Sea level has not moved Temperatures have stayed the same, and the powers that be do not like to admit this. I have a Greenpeace tomb from 1968 it predicted that sea levels would rise meters and temperatures would rise to the point that life on earth would be impossible all this nonsense should have occurred in 1996, so 28 years later they still spout out the same doom and gloom, to keep the donations rolling that they can live this perfect lifestyle saving humanity from itself, They should use their effort to condemn the USA for all the trouble that it causes in its own interest.
Look, global rising sea level is not the issue for islands. I have been visiting the same coastal areas along the Australian coast for the last 60 years. Australia is a reasonably stable continental mass & it's sea level has not changed in all that time. The pacific Islands on the other hand are formed by volcanics associated with plate tectonics. Oceanic plate drift carries the islands away from the volcanic hot spot that formed them. You can see the evidence on a map, chains of islands arcing away from the volcanic hot spot. As the sea floor drifts the islands away from the hotspot it also sinks in depth, lowering the islands into the sea. This is an inevitable geological process that has nothing to do with climate change. It's just volcanic and plate tectonic hot spots raise the sea floor & as the sea floor moves away from the hotspot, it sinks deeper below the sea. Look it up, look at the mid Atlantic ridge for example, this is a very long major up-welling of the mantle, which then cools and moves away from the up-welling, causing the sea floor to sink deeper as it moves further away from the up-welling. These are global scale geological processes that have been occurring for many millions of years. There is no stopping it, people just have to keep moving to survive. It's why animals have legs, wings and flippers. Get used to it!
Go and talk to China.
bullshit.
As usual, no evidence is provided to us to check these disinformation claims out for ourselves. I see the sun rise every day and set every day, been doing this for millions of years. And will continue to do so for millions of years. First it was claimed in the 1970s that we were heading into another ice age, then this became global warming, then when the evidence did not support warming, it became climate change. Lady, climate never stays the same, it is always changing, and always will. These doom mongers scaring every one, and putting their hand out for donations - modern version of snake oil salesmen. No thank you lady, I am guessing this lady is a paid actor repeating lines someone else wrote for her.
lack of fish is not man-made so-called climate change.
if the Pacific Nations are so concerned, why are they pressuring Australia which contributes 1.5% to CO2 emissions and ignoring China's 30% emissions ???? ...an why doesn't Oxfam pressure China ???
scam
Just remember we have no control over the earths systems and at other points in time the ocean was 80 metres higher, stop the grift.
It would be cheaper if every dollar spent on the futile ideological quest to change the climate by 1 degree was spent on adaption to change instead these Islands wouldn't have a problem. The sea level rising 3mm per year gives us plenty of time, instead of the decade or 2 the alarmists are giving us.
More Climate BS from the Leftards don't give em a cent!
sounds more like overfishing by most probably other villages or corporate entities. Who are they trying to kid with this stuff
Yeah .I think so too
Horseshit
What a load of BS. This is a scam
yeap yeap Yeap!
Try talking to China and India before hitting out at Australia. We are not the ones causing any problems - if there is a problem, and scientific evidence shows that there is a lot of misinformation surrounding climate change, get your facts correct please, else you will look like an idiot!!
total bs
no climate change crisis, you lyres.
Rubbish, absolute rubbish
Oxfam = socialism = authoritarianism. Using the weather as a weapon to bring on the Communist NWO.
All hail the CLIMATE SCAM
absolute lies, caused by subduction, why is the water level at fort denison still the same as it was 100 plus years ago? water finds an equal level
BS not man made, just weather
No one deserves this ❤
The climate has always changed - it is not a crisis.
you are a joke
What a load of absolute rubbish - this SCAM is all about money (and this is a classic example) and power. Not one bit of empirical evidence to support any of the claims in this video.
