Bangladesh Rohingya Refugee Crisis Response

More than 600,000 Rohingya people have crossed over to Bangladesh. This unprecedented number of refugees arriving in a very short space of time has caused a large-scale and escalating humanitarian crisis. Oxfam is responding, and we have reached over 266,000 people in the Rohingya camps and host communities with WASH, Protection, Gender and EFSVL programming since late 2017. You can help us scale up our response. Make a donation today.
Campaign on reducing inequality in Asia
In many parts of the Philippines, taking care of children and the elderly, as well as doing household chores, is seen as a woman's task. The heavy and unequal unpaid care and domestic work that women and girls perform gets even more arduous, as they also combat the adverse effects of climate change in the country. This leaves them with less time and choice to access opportunities in education, healthcare, and decent-paid work, among others. Photo Credit: Jed Regala/Oxfam
Asia has been experiencing high and sustained levels of economic growth, but why is inequality only getting worse? Asia's rich are getting richer, but, the poor are only getting poorer. Low wages and a lack of rights at work, particularly for women, are at the heart of this scandal. Join Oxfam as we demand Asian leaders, decision makers, and businesses to tackle extreme inequality before it is too late.

The people who grow our food are the very same ones who go to bed hungry. We need to address the broken food system here in Asia. Join Oxfam in amplifying the voices of vulnerable small-scale farmers and food producers in Asia.

Violence against women and girls is a hidden global crisis. It is rooted in the gender inequality that women face throughout their lives; from childhood through to old age. It is time for every single one of us, to understand and learn more about this crisis. Join Oxfam in saying 'Enough!' to violence against women and girls.
